Vegetarian Vegan White Gravy

Total time15 min

Prep time5 min

Cook time10 min

This creamy white gravy comes together fast with a simple butter-and-flour roux, whisked until smooth and faintly nutty before oat milk gets streamed in for that silky, pourable texture. Garlic powder and onion powder add depth while black pepper keeps every spoonful peppery and warm, and a few extra minutes on the stove is all it takes to get that classic spoon-coating thickness. It's the kind of gravy that ladles beautifully over biscuits, mashed potatoes, or a hearty breakfast plate, with a flavor rich enough that no one will guess how few ingredients it takes. Since the whole recipe skips meat drippings entirely and leans on pantry staples for its savory base, it's an easy, ready-in-minutes addition to a vegetarian table.
