Bone Broth Gravy
This nourishing bone broth gravy is rich, flavorful, and packed with nutrients like collagen and minerals. Made with homemade bone broth and tallow, it’s the perfect healthy upgrade to classic gravy for holidays or weeknight dinners.
Ingredients
- 2 ½ tablespoons beef tallow or butter
- 4 tablespoons all-purpose flour or gluten-free flour if needed
- 2 ¼ cups bone broth beef, chicken, or turkey
- ½ teaspoon sea salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon ground sage
Instructions
- Melt the tallow in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Whisk in the flour to form a roux, stirring constantly for 2–3 minutes until golden brown and fragrant.
- Slowly pour in the bone broth while whisking to prevent lumps.
- Continue whisking until the gravy thickens, about 5–7 minutes.
- Season with salt, pepper, and sage. Adjust to taste.
- Serve warm over roasted meats, mashed potatoes, or vegetables.
Notes
For gluten-free or keto gravy, swap the flour with arrowroot powder, tapioca starch, or almond flour.
Double the recipe and freeze half for a quick make-ahead option.
Use chicken or turkey bone broth for a lighter gravy, or beef bone broth for a richer flavor.
If you don’t have tallow, butter works, or you can make your own using my How to Render Tallow in a Crockpot recipe.
