A simple yet scrumptious maple mustard sauce, it’s a sauce that comes together in under 5 minutes. It’s perfect on pork or chicken!
We’ve made a dijon mustard sauce that works well with salmon but today’s maple mustard sauce is best accompanied with pork or chicken.
It reminds us of a honey mustard type of sauce. It’s made with a few pantry ingredients and comes together quickly.
Use it as a marinade or a basting sauce for your next dinner.

Tips For Success
- This recipe calls for a lot of garlic! Don’t be afraid to use this much. It adds flavor to the sauce.
- Be sure to use real maple syrup, not pancake syrup. It’s not the same thing.
- You can make it spicy by adding some crushed red pepper flakes or cayenne pepper.
- We prefer to serve this sauce with pork tenderloin, but it’s also great for chicken breasts.
