Vegan (& Gluten Free) Sausage Gravy

Sausage gravy is simple farmhouse food at its best! Lovely over biscuits or potatoes, it makes a perfectly delicious and hearty breakfast (or dinner!) Here are the ingredients you will need to make this yummy gravy:

Be sure to use unsweetened original plant milk, or your gravy will not turn out right. I use Silk Unsweetened Original Soymilk and it works perfectly, but I have used unsweetened Almond Breeze successfully as well.

Crumble up the vegan breakfast sausages:

Add the Magical Seasoning Blend to the oat or all-purpose flour. (If you need the gravy to be gluten free, be sure to use certified gluten free oat flour.) Whisk to combine:

Melt the Earth Balance in a saucepan over medium heat:

Add the seasoned flour and whisk to combine with the Earth Balance:

Cook the roux for several minutes, while stirring continuously. It will be quite thick. A classic roux uses an equal amount of fat and flour, but I cut the Earth Balance in half for this recipe. If you want this step to be easier, or if you just want a richer gravy, double the Earth Balance in the step above.

Gradually whisk in about half of the milk:

It will be lumpy at first:

Keep whisking until you have a smooth gravy like this:

Whisk in the rest of the milk:

Cook until the gravy is thick and bubbly:

Turn off the heat, and stir in the crumbled sausage:

Add black pepper to taste. I add about 1/4 tsp, but you might like more!

Serve over biscuits!

Just look at that beautiful gravy!

I also love to make what we call a Farmer’s Breakfast. It is roasted potatoes and sausage gravy, topped with a tofu fried “egg”!

Enjoy!

  1. I made this gravy and it was quite good. I think 8 will reduce the sugar just a bit in the seasoning mix, but the gravy was still good——just a tad sweet for me.

    1. Thank you, Marty! Everyone has a different preference for the amount of sweetness that they like. I would increase the onion powder proportionately to the decrease in sugar in the Magickal Seasoning Blend when you make it again.

I love hearing from you! Please leave a comment!
