Time 40m

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup quick-cooking steel-cut oats
3 cups water
2 cups hot water, or more to taste
1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ teaspoon herbes de Provence
½ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon ground black pepper
1 pinch garlic powder
1 tablespoon virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Stir oats into 3 cups water in a saucepan; bring to a boil, reduce heat to medium-low, and cook at a simmer until the oats are tender and the water is absorbed, about 20 minutes.
  • Stir 2 cups hot water into the cooked oats. Strain water to use as 'oat broth' into a large sauce pan. Save cooked oats for another use.
  • Stir pumpkin puree, sugar, herbes de Provence, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder into the oat broth with a whisk until smooth; add olive oil and stir to combine. Thin the gravy with more hot water, if desired. Place the saucepan over medium heat, bring the gravy to a simmer, and cook until hot, about 10 minutes.
