Ingredients

Servings
  • 2 Tbsp. butter salted
  • 3 Tbsp. flour or a gluten-free 1-to-1 blend
  • 1 cup chicken broth regular sodium
  • ½ cup milk regular or plant-based
  • ½ tsp. poultry seasoning optional
  • salt to taste
  • black pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place butter in a small saucepan or skillet over medium heat and wait for it to melt. If you’d like a darker gravy, let it start to brown slightly.
  2. Add flour and whisk until a thick paste forms.
  3. Pour broth in ¼ cup increments, whisking well after each addition.
  4. Once it thickens up, pour in ½ cup milk in ¼ cup increments, whisking between each addition until smooth. Continue whisking and simmering until your desired consistency is reached.
  5. Salt and pepper to taste and add in poultry seasoning, if desired.
