Ingredients

  • 2 cups turkey drippings
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon gluten-free cornstarch
  • 2 cups gluten-free chicken broth
  • 2 tablespoons butter
  • 0.5 teaspoon salt
  • 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1 teaspoon fresh sage, finely chopped

Directions

Step 1

Collect the pan drippings from the turkey roasting pan, straining them through a fine mesh sieve to remove any solids.

Step 2

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

Step 3

Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour and cornstarch to the melted butter, whisking constantly to form a smooth paste (roux). Cook for 2 minutes to eliminate the raw flour taste.

Step 4

Slowly add the strained turkey drippings and gluten-free chicken broth to the roux, whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.

Step 5

Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 minutes, or until the gravy thickens to your desired consistency.

Step 6

Stir in the salt, black pepper, thyme, and sage. Adjust the seasoning as needed after tasting.

Step 7

Remove from heat and strain the gravy again for an extra smooth texture, if desired.

Step 8

Serve hot alongside your roasted turkey and enjoy the rich, herby flavors of this gluten-free classic turkey gravy!
