Ingredients

• 2 tablespoons olive oil
• 1 medium, finely chopped yellow onion
• 2 cloves, minced garlic
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2 cups vegetable broth
• 2 tablespoons soy sauce
• 2 tablespoons nutritional yeast

Directions

Step 1

Heat the olive oil in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat.

Add the finely chopped yellow onion and cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until softened and translucent.

Step 3

Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 1 minute until fragrant.

Step 4

Sprinkle the all-purpose flour into the pan and stir well to coat the onions and garlic. Cook for 1-2 minutes to remove the raw flour taste.

Step 6

Add the soy sauce, nutritional yeast, dried thyme, black pepper, and salt. Stir well to combine.

Step 7

Lower the heat to medium-low and let the gravy simmer for about 8-10 minutes, stirring frequently, until it thickens.

Step 8

Slowly whisk in the unsweetened almond milk and cook for another 2-3 minutes, ensuring the gravy is smooth and creamy.

Step 9

Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary.

Step 10

Remove from heat and serve warm over your favorite dishes.
