Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 tablespoons Unsalted butter
- 2 tablespoons Almond flour
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 1 cup Chicken broth
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.25 teaspoon Xanthan gum
Instructions
In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
Add the almond flour to the melted butter, stirring constantly, to create a roux. Cook for about 2-3 minutes until the mixture is lightly golden.
Gradually whisk in the heavy cream and chicken broth until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
Add the garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper to the saucepan, stirring to incorporate the seasonings.
Continue to cook the gravy over medium heat, stirring frequently, until it begins to thicken, about 5-6 minutes.
Sprinkle the xanthan gum evenly over the gravy and stir well. This will help to further thicken the gravy without adding extra carbs.
Allow the gravy to cook for an additional 1-2 minutes, then remove from heat.
Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.
Serve warm over your favorite low carb dishes and enjoy!
