Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup cremini mushrooms, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons coconut aminos
- 1 tablespoon nutritional yeast
- 2 tablespoons almond flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 0.5 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper, freshly ground
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and garlic. Sauté for about 3-4 minutes until the onion becomes translucent and fragrant.
Stir in the chopped cremini mushrooms, and continue to cook for another 5 minutes until they have released their moisture and are slightly browned.
Add the coconut aminos, nutritional yeast, and almond flour to the saucepan. Stir well to combine, allowing the almond flour to cook for 2 minutes.
Slowly pour in the vegetable broth and whisk to prevent any lumps, making sure everything is well combined.
Add the almond milk, fresh thyme leaves, ground black pepper, and salt, stirring continuously until the mixture begins to thicken, usually after about 5 minutes.
Reduce the heat to low and let the gravy simmer, stirring occasionally, for an additional 5 minutes. Adjust seasoning to taste.
Once the gravy has reached the desired consistency, remove it from heat and let it sit for a few minutes to thicken slightly before serving.
Serve the rich and savory keto vegan gravy over your favorite plant-based dishes or as a delicious dipping sauce.
