Ingredients

1 cup turkey drippings
2 cups turkey or chicken broth
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
0.5 teaspoon xanthan gum
0.25 cup heavy cream
0.5 teaspoon salt
0.25 teaspoon ground black pepper
0.25 teaspoon garlic powder
0.25 teaspoon onion powder

Directions

Step 1

In a medium saucepan, melt the unsalted butter over medium heat. Once melted, allow it to bubble for 2-3 minutes, being cautious not to let it brown.

Step 2

Slowly whisk in the turkey drippings and the turkey or chicken broth until well combined.

Step 3

Sprinkle the xanthan gum evenly over the mixture while continuously whisking to avoid any clumping.

Step 4

Continue to whisk over medium heat until the gravy starts to thicken, about 3-5 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and stir in the heavy cream, mixing thoroughly until the gravy reaches your desired consistency.

Step 6

Season with salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder, adjusting to taste.

Step 7

Simmer the gravy on low for another 2 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Step 8

Remove from heat and allow the gravy to cool slightly before serving. Serve warm over turkey or your favorite keto side dish.
