Oh my gosh! This was so good!!! I put it on your vegan chickpea loaf and it was sooo good!
I gave it a 5 but 2 others said 4. The ONLY thing they were bothered about was it’s colour – being yellowish instead of brown.
Any tips/tricks please? xx
That’s funny, I love the color because it reminds me of canned gravy I used to eat at Thanksgiving pre-vegan. 🙂 Do you want it to be dark in color? I’m really not sure how to make that happen here, unless you have darker vegetable broth or something.
There’s a product called Gravy Master that is available in the condiment aisle of most grocery stores. It adds a brown color, and just a bit of flavor. I learned about the product from a vegan chef. Hope this helps!
This is so easy to make and absolutely delicious!
The BEST vegan gravy I have ever made! Thanks so much for this fabulous gravy!
You’re welcome!
This is a revelation!!
Gravy is something I’ve really missed since eating plant based, but this beats the ‘real’ thing!
So quick and simple!! Thank you 🙂
You’re welcome!
This is so good!!! My husband prefers it over the very long winded recipe I normally make, so bonus!!
I did add way less nutritional yeast because he really hates it, but what a great recipe, so easy, so quick. This is all I use now!!
That’s so great!
Oh my Lord this was delicious!!! Might seriously prefer it to regular gravy. It thickened right up and had a wonderful taste. Put it on some lentil loaf and it was ah-mazing.
The gravy had great flavor and very easy to make. I wasn’t crazy about consistency of the mixture. Not sure if it was the nutritional yeast or the flour. I will stick with it and see if I can work the kinks out…
If it was a little chunky, use a whisk to really get it smooth, or even an immersion blender to make it really smooth. Hope that helps!
I’ve made this gravy several times now, and it’s truly delish! I’ve had it on mashed potatoes, with Tofurky roast, and today with homemade vegan fried chikn nuggets. I could just drink it, seriously! Thanks for a great recipe!
That sounds so wonderful, thank you!
this is so easy and yummy as hell, thanks!!
My husband just made this gravy and said “WOW”, he made it exactly as the recipe calls and added a tad bit of pepper. It was amazing and super easy!
