Mushroom gravy ~ A rich, savory, and flavorful complement to your holiday dinner!

This gravy has been loved by meat eaters as well as vegetarians and vegans in my family for years!

You’re going to want to add this hearty gravy to your next Thanksgiving or Christmas dinner menu.

It’s easy to make and perfect for pouring over mashed potatoes, Vegan Thanksgiving Wellington, or your favorite dressing.

For this recipe, I like to use a variety of mushrooms. A mixture of cremini, shiitake, and oyster mushrooms is a good choice, although whatever you have on hand will work fine.

Ingredients for Vegan Mushroom Gravy

Ingredients needed for the recipe.

You will need:

  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 2 cups assorted mushrooms, such as cremini and shiitake, de-stemmed and chopped
  • ½ cup shallots, minced
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon ground black pepper
  • ½ cup dry Marsala wine
  • 1 ½ cups vegan beef-style broth
  • 1 ½ tablespoons fresh rosemary, chopped
  • 1 ½ tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons vegan butter

How to Make Vegan Mushroom Gravy

STEP ONE: Into a medium-size skillet over medium-high heat, add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the mushrooms and shallots. Season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 minutes, stirring frequently until softened.

STEP TWO: Pour in the Marsala wine and continue cooking for an additional 2 minutes, until most of the liquid has evaporated.

STEP THREE: Add the beef-style broth and rosemary, then whisk in the flour until fully incorporated.

STEP FOUR: Bring the mixture to a boil then reduce the heat to low. Simmer for 10 minutes, stirring occasionally until thickened slightly.

STEP FIVE: Remove from heat and add the butter, stirring until it is melted into the gravy.

STEP SIX: Adjust the seasoning to taste with salt and pepper and serve hot.

FAQ

Can this gravy be made ahead of time?

Yes! This gravy can be prepared a day or two in advance and stored in a covered container in the refrigerator.

To serve, just reheat on the stovetop. It does thicken a bit in the fridge so you may need to stir in a tablespoon or two of broth or water.
