Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 1 small, finely chopped yellow onion
- 2 minced garlic cloves
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 cups vegetable broth
- 1 cup unsweetened non-dairy milk
- 1 tablespoon soy sauce
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoons black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
Instructions
Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
Add the finely chopped onion and cook until soft and translucent, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Sprinkle in the all-purpose flour and stir well to coat the onion mixture, cooking for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.
Slowly whisk in the vegetable broth, making sure to break up lumps and create a smooth mixture.
Gradually pour in the non-dairy milk while whisking continuously to combine.
Add in the soy sauce, nutritional yeast, poultry seasoning, paprika, black pepper, and salt. Stir until fully combined.
Bring the gravy to a simmer, stirring occasionally, and let it cook for 5-7 minutes or until it has thickened to your desired consistency.
Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
Remove from heat and serve hot over your favorite dishes. Enjoy!
