Instructions
1
In a medium pot over medium heat, add the olive oil. Once hot, add in the onion and garlic and saute for 5 minutes.
2
Whisk in flour, nutritional yeast, soy sauce, dried sage, salt, and pepper until a paste forms. Slowly whisk in the broth.
3
Bring mixture to a boil and then lower heat to a gentle simmer. Simmer for 6-8 minutes to thicken the sauce.
4
Optional step: Use a blender or hand blender to blend the gravy. I like it both ways, a little chunky from the onion and garlic AND super smooth once it’s blended.

Storage Instructions: Let the gravy cool completely, then transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months. Reheat on the stove over low heat, whisking in broth or water until smooth and pourable again.

Tips & Tricks (5)
- Toast Your Aromatics First 🧅Sauté the diced onion and garlic in olive oil for 3-4 minutes until golden and fragrant before adding flour—this deepens the savory base and eliminates any raw onion bite.
- Make a Proper Roux 🥄Cook the flour with the aromatics for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to remove the raw flour taste and create a thicker, more luxurious gravy consistency.
- Whisk While Adding Broth 🌊Slowly pour the vegetable broth while whisking vigorously to prevent lumps and ensure a silky, smooth texture throughout.
- Build Umami Depth 🍄Add soy sauce and nutritional yeast together—soy sauce provides deep umami saltiness while nutritional yeast adds savory, cheesy notes that mimic the richness of traditional meat-based gravies.
- Bloom Your Spices 🌿Add poultry seasoning and dried sage during the sautéing stage rather than at the end so their flavors fully infuse into the oil and develop a more complex, integrated taste.
