Equipment
- Saucepan
Ingredients
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter (85g)
- 6 tablespoons all-purpose flour (45g)
- 3 cups warm broth (or pan drippings) (720mL)
- ¾ teaspoon onion powder
- Salt to taste
- Ground black pepper to taste
Instructions
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour, and cook, stirring constantly, until the flour turns golden brown, about 4 minutes.
- While whisking, slowly pour in the broth and whisk until smooth. Stir in the onion powder. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Simmer, stirring frequently, for about 5 to 10 minutes, until the gravy thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve immediately or keep warm until ready to serve.
Notes
- Gravy can be made in advance! Refrigerate it in an airtight container for up to 2 days until you're ready to serve. It can also be frozen for up to 3 months. Let it thaw in the refrigerator for 24 hours. When ready to serve, warm it gently in a small saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring frequently.
