Vegan Gravy
Servings: 8
Ingredients:
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 1/4 cup gluten-free flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 tbsp soy sauce (or tamari for a gluten-free option)
- 1 tsp nutritional yeast
- Salt and pepper to taste
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme (optional for extra flavor)
Instructions:
- Heat olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Once the oil is warm, whisk in the gluten-free flour. Stir continuously for 1-2 minutes until the mixture turns golden and forms a roux.
- Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, ensuring there are no lumps.
- Add the soy sauce (or tamari), nutritional yeast, and dried thyme (if using).
- Let the gravy simmer for 5-7 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
- Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve warm over mashed potatoes, stuffing, or your favorite Thanksgiving sides.
Pro Tip: If the gravy becomes too thick, simply add a bit more vegetable broth to thin it out to your preferred consistency.
