How to Make Gluten Free Turkey Gravy

Step 1 – Strain the pan drippings through a mesh strainer to remove any solids and set aside.

Step 2 – Melt the butter in a medium saucepan over medium high heat.

Step 3 – This whisk in the arrowroot powder for approximately 1 minute. 

Step 4 – Gradually whisk in the pan drippings or broth. Bring the mixture to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until thicken

• Step 5 – Then season with the salt and pepper and serve warm.
• Step 6 – Pour over your turkey and your favorite sides and enjoy!

Expert Tips

• Desired Consistency – The gravy may thicken some as it sits.  Warming the gravy backup will help to thin it out and you can also stir in more drippings or broth if needed.  You may need to add a thickener if your gravy mix is still thin.
• Pan Juices – If you do not have a full 2 cups of turkey drippings, you can add in broth until you have the full 2 cups.
• Combining Ingredients – Make sure the ingredients are combined to a smooth and creamy consistency.
• Fat Separator – A fat separator is a measuring cup that allows you to pour the drippings while keeping the fat separate. We think this gravy is best without it.
