Gluten-Free & Vegetarian Gravy with Vegan Option - Watch Learn Eat (1)

Since my husband began his gluten-free diet, it has been difficult finding a gluten-free gravy recipe everyone enjoys.

We tried some packaged gravies, but they just didn't hit the spot.

Therefore, I decided to take on the task of creating my own gluten-free gravy that the whole family would love.

Ingredients

  • All-Purpose Gluten-Free Flour Blend - Personally, I find Bob's Red Mill Gluten Free, All-Purpose Baking Flour to work best.
  • Butter - To make this gravy vegan, use vegan butter instead.
  • Vegetable Broth
  • Gravy Master - This helps to achieve the caramel color of the gravy and adds flavor. And, it happens to be one of my childhood staples. If my memory serves me right, I watched my father use this browning/seasoning sauce countless times during during my childhood. It's also gluten-free and vegan!
  • Salt
  • Black Pepper
  • Fresh Herbs - I opted for a mix of fresh rosemary, sage and thyme.

Instructions

  • In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

  • Once butter is melted, whisk in flour to make a roux.

  • Once the roux starts to bubble, turn heat to low. Whisk constantly until roux resembles a smooth paste (similar to peanut butter or cake frosting) and has a toasty aroma.

  • Whisk in the vegetable broth, Gravy Master (or other browning sauce) and fresh herbs. Add salt and pepper to taste. Continue to cook gravy over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until it comes to a boil. Then reduce to a simmer and stir until desired thickness is achieved.
