Mushroom Gravy is easy to make gravy with a rich deep mushroom flavor. It makes a great addition to potatoes, noodles, meatballs, and the list could go on and on.
This mushroom gravy doesn’t take much work to make and you don’t even need drippings from any meat.
My favorite way to serve this is with meatballs and mashed potatoes. To tell the truth, I could eat it every week, it’s so good. But if you wish you can change up the recipe with chicken broth or vegetable broth, depending on what you will be serving the gravy with.
Helpful tips:
- Use butter to saute the mushrooms and onions.
- Saute the mushrooms and onions until well done and onions start to brown.
- When done sauteing the vegetables if the mixture seems to be dry add some additional butter.
- Gradually add the broth to the vegetables and flour mixture and make sure to whisk/stir as you add the broth.
- To change up the gravy use different broths such as beef, chicken, or vegetable.
Steps for making Mushroom Gravy:
Step one
Clean the mushroom by washing them and then patting them dry. Slice the mushrooms and chop the onions finely.
Step two
In a large skillet over medium heat add the butter, mushroom, and onions. Saute for about 10 to 15 minutes or until the mushroom and onions are slightly caramelized.
Step three
Add the flour to the mushroom mixture and stir in. Continue to cook for about a minute.
Step four
Gradually add the broth and remember to keep whisking while you add the broth. Continue to cook until desired thickness. Season with salt and pepper.

Mushroom gravy and meatballs really does sound like the perfect comfort food meal! Heck, gravy with anything puts this on the path to comfort food. I love making homemade gravy, but next time I need to add mushrooms!
