Plant-Based Gravy

Gravy is for everyone!

  • 2 Tbsp olive oil

  • 2 Tbsp vegan butter

  • 1 small onion

  • 4 cloves garlic (pressed or minced)

  • 2 cups sliced mushrooms (baby bella or white button) – slice as thin as possible

  • Salt

  • Pepper

  • 3 Tbsp flour

  • 1 cup vegetable broth

  • 2 cups unsweetened plant-based milk (cashew, almond, or Silk Next Milk are the best)

  • 1 tsp sage

  • 4 Tbsp finely chopped pecans

 

Directions:

  1. Warm butter and olive oil in a cast iron skillet over medium heat until butter is melted.  Add onion, garlic, mushrooms, and a pinch of salt and pepper.  Stir frequently and cook 4-5 minutes until onions are translucent.

  2. Sprinkle flour over the mixture and whisk to coat.  Cook for 1 minute.

  3. Slowly whisk in plant-based milk and broth.  Add sage.  Season with a pinch of salt and pepper.

  4. Cook until thickened while stirring frequently.  Adjust seasonings as you prefer.  We typically add quite a bit more pepper.

  5. Change to low heat, stir in the chopped pecans until ready to serve.  Add plant-based milk as needed if you want thinner gravy.

  6. Enjoy this good plant-based gravy on biscuits, toast, or a plant-based roast!
