Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 3 tbsp chili powder adjust down for a milder sauce.
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon cumin ground
- ¼ tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon oregano dried

- 8 oz tomato sauce
- salt to taste
- black pepper to taste
- 2 tsp apple cider vinegar
Instructions
- Mix the spices together in a bowl.
- Add oil to a medium pot and place over medium-high heat. Once the oil is shimmering add the flour and whisk in then add the spices and continue whisking for a minute.
- Pour in the tomato sauce and whisk then add the stock and continue whisking until slightly thickened.

Notes
- Looking for a mild enchilada sauce? If you don't want your sauce to be spicy you can reduce the amount of chili powder or omit it altogether.
- If you'd like more heat then try adding in a pinch of cayenne pepper.
- You can also add in a splash of heavy cream after the stock to make a creamy version of this sauce.
- Make sure to cook the roux mixture for a few minutes to remove the raw flour taste but don't let it brown.
- Use a whisk while you add the tomato sauce and stock to ensure there are no lumps in the sauce.
- The cinnamon adds a subtle sweetness and warmth to the sauce but don't worry it's not a sweet tasting sauce.
- The vinegar really enhances all the flavors so try not to skip it!
- Nutritional information is for 3 cups of sauce.
