Begin by gathering all your ingredients. Open the jar of sun-dried tomatoes and drain the oil. Measure out the tomato paste, brown sugar, dried basil, garlic powder, and kosher salt.
In a food processor, add the drained sun-dried tomatoes, tomato paste, brown sugar, dried basil, garlic powder, and kosher salt.
Secure the lid on the food processor and blend the ingredients until you achieve a smooth and creamy consistency. If the mixture is too thick, you can add a little olive oil or water to help it blend better.
Taste the spread and adjust the seasonings if necessary. If you prefer a sweeter flavor, consider adding a touch more brown sugar.
Transfer the Sun Dried Tomato Spread to a storage container and refrigerate for at least an hour to let the flavors meld together. It can be stored in the fridge for up to a week.
