On weekends my husband and I like to spend a little more time cooking a nice breakfast (or usually, by the time we take care of the pets, make the coffee, and get everything prepared, it’s more of a brunch). Sometimes it’s pancakes or french toast. But at least once a week, we love to make my tofu scramble with some oil-free hash browns or roasted potatoes.

I’m a sauce person. How about you? I’m all about the flavor! And gravies and sauces are a perfect way to up the flavor with our foods. This Easy Vegan Country Gravy Mix makes a perfect gravy for my breakfast potatoes and tofu scramble. And it’s so quick and easy!

Ingredients in this white gravy recipe

  • Whole wheat pastry flour – I’ve also made this recipe with all purpose flour and with whole wheat flour.

Can I make this recipe gluten free?

I haven’t tested this recipe with gluten free flour, but I’m sure it would also work nicely with a 1-to-1 gluten free flour blend like this one from Bob’s Red Mill.

How to make this easy vegan country gravy mix

Simply mix all the ingredients together in a medium sized bowl. Then transfer the mix to a jar, label it, and store it in your cupboard.

Using the mix to make country gravy

Step 1

When you want to make the gravy, mix together 1/3 cup of mix with 2 cups of your favorite plant based milk. I find it easiest to mix together if I place the gravy mix in the bowl or pot first and gradually stir in the milk a bit at a time.

Step 2

I usually heat this in the microwave on 80% power, stirring every 30 seconds until it is thick. The gravy can also be cooked over medium heat on the stove, stirring constantly until it is thickened.

How long does this gravy mix last?

Stored in an air tight container, this mix will last for several months.

The prepared gravy will last for up to 5 days in an air tight container in the refrigerator.

How to reheat this gravy

This country gravy thickens a bit in the refrigerator. Reheat it in the microwave or in a small pot on the stove. If it is still to thick after reheating it, add a little non-dairy milk to thin it out.

Serving suggestions

In addition to topping your favorite savory breakfast dishes, this also makes a perfect white gravy for vegan biscuits and gravy.

Just make up a batch of my Oil-Free Vegan Biscuits and my Vegan Breakfast Sausage Links. Dice the sausage, or grind it up in a food processor and add it to the cooked gravy. Pour the sausage gravy over the biscuits for the ultimate comfort food breakfast, Biscuits & Gravy!

You’re going to absolutely love how easy and delicious this is! So good, you just might be caught licking the bowl.
