Easy Vegan Mushroom Gravy

This easy vegan mushroom gravy will make your non-vegan friends speechless, wondering if its time for them to give up meat!

Deep, rich, earthy and meaty, our vegan mushroom gravy is a wonderful stick-to-your-ribs sauce that pairs beautifully with our cornbread stuffing, pretzel crusted tofu, tempeh Wellington and tahini mashed potatoes.

How Do You Make the Best Mushroom Gravy?

Our mushroom gravy brings together sauteed button mushrooms, sage, rosemary, and smoked paprika.  We keep the gravy gluten-free by thickening it with cornstarch.  If you like your gravy to have a little punch, add a splash of sherry, red wine, or a bit of bourbon to taste.

As with all of our recipes, we experiment to find the fastest, best way to make delicious holiday dishes, and our mushroom gravy is proof.  You’ll love the fact that vegan mushroom gravy can be prepared in less than 15 minutes before you can set it on a low flame to reduce (and tend to other dishes.)
