How to Store Leftover Dairy Free Sausage Gravy?

Store any leftover dairy-free sausage gravy in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

It will stay fresh for up to 3 days.

Sometimes it thickens up a lot after it sits.

Then warm it up on the stove over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

Make sure to heat it thoroughly before serving.

 

 

Can You Freeze Dairy Free Sausage Gravy?

Yes, you can freeze dairy-free sausage gravy!

Allow the gravy to cool completely to room temperature.

Then transfer it to a freezer-safe container.

It will keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.

To reheat, thaw the gravy in the refrigerator overnight.

Then warm it on the stove over medium heat.

Stir occasionally until heated through.

How to Thicken Dairy Free Sausage Gravy?

This dairy-free sausage gravy is designed to be thick and creamy. Oh-la-la!

If you follow the recipe, you shouldn’t need to thicken it further.

But if prefer a thicker gravy, you can add a little more flour when cooking the sausage.

Another option is to let the gravy simmer for a few extra minutes.

Then it will reduce and thicken naturally.

Remember, adding the milk slowly and stirring constantly?

That’s what will get you a perfect consistency.
