How to make Easy Peanut Sauce

Place 1/4 Cup of peanut butter in a small bowl, then a little bit at a time, add the following ingredients while mixing constantly to keep the consistency smooth: 1 Tbsp Soy Sauce ( for gluten-free, be sure to use gluten-free soy sauce), 1 Tbsp Lime Juice, 1 tsp Maple Syrup, and 1/4 Cup Water.

Avoid adding all of the ingredients at once, as it will make it more difficult to stir together. If you add the liquid slowly, it keeps the peanut butter smooth and prevents it from separating in the liquid.
