Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups unsweetened almond milk
- 2 tablespoons vegan butter
- 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast
- 0.5 teaspoons garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoons onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoons salt
- 0.25 teaspoons black pepper
- 1 teaspoon soy sauce
Instructions
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the vegan butter.
Add the all-purpose flour to the melted butter and whisk continuously for about 2-3 minutes, until the mixture forms a smooth, golden paste (roux).
Gradually add the almond milk, about 1/2 cup at a time, whisking constantly to incorporate each addition and prevent lumps.
Once all the almond milk is added, increase the heat slightly and continue whisking until the mixture begins to thicken, approximately 5-7 minutes.
Stir in the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and soy sauce, and continue to cook for another 2 minutes, stirring frequently to ensure the gravy is smooth and creamy.
Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed, adding more salt or pepper if desired.
Remove from heat and serve immediately over your favorite vegan dishes.
