Easy Sausage Gravy Recipe
I like this recipe because it’s easy to make with simple ingredients and it has all the Southern flavor you know and love. Ladle this creamy, dairy-free sausage gravy over biscuits with a side of fresh fruit for a hearty and satisfying breakfast or dinner!
Vegan Sausage Gravy Ingredients
- 8 ounces vegan breakfast-style sausage
- 5 tablespoons vegan butter
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 cups oat milk, divided
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon seasoned salt
Ingredient Notes
- Vegan Breakfast-Style Sausage – I used Beyond Breakfast Sausage links in Classic flavor. Impossible also makes a good breakfast sausage.
- Oat Milk – To me, oat milk is the most like dairy milk in terms of flavor. If you prefer a different plant milk, something mild flavored, such as unsweetened almond would be a good choice.
- Seasoned Salt – This all-purpose seasoning blend adds more depth of flavor than regular salt.
How to Make Vegan Sausage Gravy
STEP ONE: In a large skillet over medium-high heat, crumble the sausage and cook for 5 minutes, or until browned.
STEP TWO: Reduce heat to low and add butter. When the butter is melted, add flour, pepper, and salt, then whisk to combine. Bring just to a simmer, add 1/2 cup milk, and whisk until fully incorporated.
STEP THREE: Increase the heat to medium. Stir constantly until the mixture begins to thicken. Gradually add the remaining milk, 1/4 cup at a time, whisking thoroughly until the gravy is smooth and thickened slightly.
STEP FOUR: Adjust seasoning to taste and serve hot.
Storage and Reheating
- This white pepper gravy can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. The gravy will thicken with refrigeration; this is normal.
- To reheat, transfer the gravy to a saucepan over low heat. Add a splash or two of milk and whisk thoroughly to loosen the consistency. Add a pinch more salt and pepper, as needed, to account for the extra milk, and serve hot.
