Hey! If your Swedish meatball sauce isn’t thickening, try adding a slurry of cornstarch and water or a bit of flour mixed with butter to thicken it up—hope that helps!

Try adding a bit of cornstarch or flour to thicken the sauce! You can also simmer it a bit longer to reduce and thicken naturally.

Your Swedish meatball sauce might not be thickening because it needs more time to simmer and reduce, or it could be lacking a thickening agent like cornstarch or flour. Try simmering longer or adding a slurry for thicker sauce.
