We are going to use bone broth for it’s intense flavor and add in some fresh herbs to take it to the next level. If you happen to have pan drippings on hand, that will take this gravy over the top!!
How to make Keto Gravy:
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the bone broth (drippings if you have them)and whisk to combine.
Add the herbs and garlic and bring to a boil.

Reduce heat and simmer for 10 minutes.
Remove the herbs and garlic. Add the fish sauce and sprinkle the glucomannan over the broth, whisk to combine. Heat until it starts to thicken, another 5 to 10 minutes.

Recipe Tips & Tricks
- Gravy will thicken as it cools.
- To use xanthan gum – mix 2 Tablespoons of xanthan gum with 1 Tablespoon of hot water in a small bowl. Whisk into the hot bone broth.
- If gravy gets too thick, thin with heated bone broth.
- Fish Sauce is a replacement for Worcestershire sauce. It does not add a fishy flavor, I promise.
- I used Kettle & Fire Chicken Bone Broth, but you can substitute Beef Bone Broth for beef gravy.
- Serving size = 1/4 cups
