Whisk in the broth gradually, a little at a time at first, whisking out any lumps before adding more — pouring it all in at once is the most common reason gravy turns lumpy.
Instructions:
- Melt the Butter: Melt the vegan butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
- Make the Roux: Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, to form a light roux.
- Whisk in the Broth: Gradually whisk in the vegetable broth, making sure no lumps remain.
- Season: Add the soy sauce, onion powder, garlic powder, and thyme.
- Simmer: Bring to a gentle simmer, whisking frequently, and cook for 5-7 minutes, until thickened to a gravy consistency.
- Adjust: Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Serve: Serve hot over mashed potatoes, stuffing, or your favorite mains.
