Stay present, stay peaceful… and still serve the best gravy ever.
If you’ve ever been standing at the stove whisking gravy while everyone else is laughing at the table… this one’s for you.
This is my tried-and-true make-ahead turkey gravy that lets you stay calm, graceful, and fully present on Thanksgiving Day.
And honestly? It tastes even better when it’s made ahead because the flavors have time to deepen.
This recipe has saved me so many years in a row — and now it’s officially going on the blog so you can save your own sanity too.
⭐ Why Make Gravy Ahead?
No last-minute panic
No lumps
No juggling the turkey, the sides, and a hot pan sauce
You can reheat it gently while carving the turkey
Guests will think you’re a magician (I won’t tell 😉)

❤️ A Little Note
Thanksgiving doesn’t have to be stressful.
Sometimes peace looks like planning ahead so your heart is free to slow down and genuinely enjoy the people sitting around your table.
This simple gravy is one small way to make room for joy.
And since we’re already talking about creating a calmer, more intentional Thanksgiving… I wanted to share something with you. I put together a Holiday Home & Heart Planner – Thanksgiving Edition, It’s cozy, practical, faith-centered, and filled with the exact checklists, timelines, and planning pages I use in my own home. It’s designed to help you enjoy the season instead of rushing through it.
You can take a peek at it right here if you’d like to bring a little extra calm to your holiday planning this year.
Serve one another humbly in love.~Galatians 5:13
Thanks for being here. I hope this season brings you rest, joy, and so many sweet moments around your table.
Love you all!
