This post is sponsored by Pacific Foods, thank you for supporting the brands that make delicious Cast Iron Keto recipes EPIC.

What’s a holiday table without gravy? This gluten-free Keto-friendly gravy is the real deal, nice and silky it adds a burst of hearty flavor to any meat, vegetable, or mashed cauliflower. No doubt, there are many ways of making gravy but this is our tried and true way to have a delicious gravy every single time, regardless of pan drippings.

For our recipe we use Pacific Foods Organic Vegetable Broth. Sometimes you want gravy without having a load of pan drippings around and this is the tastiest way to get that.

You’ll see in our recipe notes that you can sub 1 cup of the broth with drippings if you have them, subbing the full amount tends to lead to a greasier gravy which isn’t necessarily what you want. This is where the broth comes in! It provides flavor but also lends to the light silky texture. Don’t worry, there’s still plenty of fat in this Keto Gravy 😉

How to thicken Keto Gravy:

We opt to use a pinch of xanthan gum as our gravy thickener. Some recipes use coconut flour or almond flour but that gives you a gravy with a terrible texture and a taste of coconut or almonds, no thank you. Xanthan gum can be found at any grocery store usually where the baking soda and baking powder are found. It’s the perfect thickening agent for this gravy.

Some folks opt to use cream cheese but this just doesn’t taste right to us either, it’s delicious don’t get me wrong but it’s not traditional Thanksgiving style gravy.

What drippings to use for Keto Gravy?

You don’t have to use drippings at all but if you want any drippings will work here. Beef, chicken, turkey, even bacon fat will work.

How to make Keto Gravy:

So let’s walk through the steps, shall we?

To start you’ll melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat. Then you’ll whisk in the garlic powder, sea salt, and xanthan gum. Pour in the vegetable broth and bring to a simmer until thickened. Season with black pepper to taste and serve immediately.

To reheat the gravy, place the gravy over medium-high heat until warm.
