Ingredients
Makes 4 cups
1 12-ounce bottle hard cider or apple cider
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
Giblet Broth, or two 14.5-ounce cans low-sodium chicken broth, plus 2 1/2 cups water
Coarse salt and ground pepper
Directions
Place roasting pan in which turkey has been roasted on stove across two burners. (If using a disposable pan, pour drippings and browned bits from pan into a medium saucepan and proceed). Over medium-high heat, bring drippings to a boil; cook, scraping up browned bits, until syrupy. Add cider; cook, stirring constantly, until syrupy, 6 to 10 minutes. Add flour and cook, stirring until incorporated, about 2 minutes.
Stir in giblet broth, a little at a time. Bring to a simmer, stirring constantly, until gravy reaches desired thickness, 15 to 20 minutes. For a smoother consistency, strain gravy through fine-mesh sieve, if desired; discard solids. Season generously with salt and pepper. Keep warm; whisk well before serving.
