GF/DF Bechamel Sauce

Just because you have to be gluten and dairy free doesn't mean you can't enjoy a good creamy sauce. 

Try this version of the classic French white sauce, called "bechamel", which is 100% gluten and dairy free.

Ingredients:

• 1 Tbsp vegan margarine

• 1 Tbsp gluten-free 1-to-1 flour blend

• 1 cup gluten-free oat milk (If you can't find it at the store, you can make your own. (Click here for the recipe.)

• 1/2 to 1 tsp salt

• pinch of nutmeg

​

Directions:

​

In a small saucepan, melt the margarine over medium-high heat. 

​

Add flour and whisk vigorously to make a paste. Turn the heat down to low.

​

Gradually add the oat milk, a little at a time, whisking well after each addition.

Stir in the salt and nutmeg. Adjust seasonings to taste. 

​

This recipe makes about 1 cup of bechamel sauce. This recipe is easily doubled, if desired.
