Vegan “Sausage” Gravy

Yes, I’m a bit obsessed with white beans lately, and no, I’m not slowing down! They’re so versatile and have such a great, creamy texture when blended. They seriously make delicious gravy, plus it adds some protein and fiber to a recipe that is normally just made from fat. This is a win! Our gravy is vegan, gluten free, and oil free, and can be made with or without homemade shiitake sausages! This is how we made it:

Vegan “Sausage” Gravy

Ingredients:

1 cup cooked white beans, rinsed

1 cup unsweetened plant milk (recipe here)

1 tbsp nutritional yeast

1 tbsp Bragg’s Liquid Aminos

1 tsp poultry seasoning

½ tsp liquid smoke

¼ tsp black pepper

Shiitake sausages (Optional- Recipe here)

Directions:

In a high powered blender, add the white beans, milk, nutritional yeast, Bragg’s, poultry seasoning, liquid smoke, and black pepper. Taste, adjust seasoning and salt if needed.

Add the gravy to a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer, and cook for about 5 minutes. The gravy will thicken as it cools. Crumble some shiitake sausages into the gravy, and stir.

Serve over our gluten free biscuits!
