Ingredients

• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 4 tablespoons Gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 2 cups Beef or chicken stock (gluten-free certified)
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Ground black pepper
• 0.25 teaspoons Optional: Garlic powder
• 0.25 teaspoons Optional: Onion powder

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat.

Step 2

Once the butter is fully melted, reduce the heat to medium-low and whisk in the gluten-free all-purpose flour to form a smooth paste (roux). Cook the roux for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 3

Gradually pour in the beef or chicken stock, about 1/2 cup at a time, whisking constantly to prevent lumps from forming.

Step 4

Continue to cook the mixture, whisking frequently, until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

Step 5

Season the gravy with salt and ground black pepper. If desired, stir in the optional garlic powder and onion powder for additional flavor.

Step 6

Taste the gravy and adjust seasonings as needed.

Step 7

Serve immediately over mashed potatoes, meats, or roasted vegetables. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat gently over low heat, adding a splash of stock or water if needed to thin the consistency.
