  1. If I could give this six stars I would! I was looking for a gravy recipe that didn’t require so much work and you absolutely delivered! Barely any more effort than those powdered mixes and it tastes amazing. Thanks so much!

  2. This recipe impressed my non-vegan family 4 years ago. Itโ€™s been in our regular rotation since and every time I make it they still comment how amazing it is. Quick to come together and fool-proof. Throw it together and whisk til itโ€™s thick! Another wonderful staple recipe Nora – thank you!

    1. Thanks for your wonderful review and feedback, Susan! I’m glad you loved the gravy! Happy cooking!

    1. You can freeze it, but it might be an odd texture once thawed. I’d warm it up on the stove and use an immersion blender (or regular blender) to make it smooth again after freezing.

  3. This gravy is hands-down AMAZING. I hate to mess with greatness but Iโ€™m out of all-purpose flour and would like to make this for dinner tonight. Would white whole wheat, almond flour, or oat flour possibly work?

  4. Love this gravy!! I add a few other ingredients such as rosemary, steak spice blend, and a small amount of miso paste. Delicious! How long does it keep in the fridge though??

  5. I love how quickly this gravy comes together. I put everything in a cold pan and then heated it up. I had no lumps or problems with the texture. Thanks Nora!

  6. My go to! Iโ€™ve made it several times. And tonight I tried it with mushroom gravy because thatโ€™s all I had and it was delish!

    1. Awesome! I’m so thrilled you are loving the gravy! Thanks for your wonderful review and feedback!

  7. I love this gravy! I have tried to make a lot of vegan crafts and never really liked the taste but this is delicious. Thank you for giving me gravy back.

    1. You are welcome, Billie! I’m so thrilled you love it! Thanks for your awesome review and feedback! Yay to the gravy!

  8. I changed two things to fit my lifestyle and what I have on hand. I changed Dijon Mustard to regular mustard and brown rice four to oat flour as my thickening agent. I thought it still tasted great. P.S. I’m 80 years old.

    1. Hi Bernard. I’m glad you loved the gravy! Thanks for sharing your cooking experience and wonderful review!

  9. So good, even my non vegan husband commented on how good it was! I put all of the ingredients into a jar with a lid and shook it until combined, then poured it into a saucepan to cook and it came out perfectly, no lumps ๐Ÿ™‚

      1. The quickest gravy made from scratch, delicious as well! I stayed true to the recipe, but added mushrooms – sliced and pan fried prior.
        Thanks for the great recipe ๐Ÿ˜€
