Turkey Gravy
Method
Prepare Turkey Breast
Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Prepare Turkey
In a small bowl, mix together honey, Dijon mustard, thyme, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper to create a glaze.
Roast Turkey
Roast the turkey in the preheated oven for about 1 hour, basting with the reserved glaze every 20 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 165°F (75°C).
Rest Turkey
Once cooked, remove the turkey from the oven and let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
Make Cranberry-Apple Compote
Cook Compote
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce the heat and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes, until the cranberries burst and the apples are tender.
Cool Compote
Remove from heat and let it cool slightly. Discard the cinnamon stick before serving.
Prepare Turkey Gravy
Make Gravy
In a saucepan, combine turkey drippings or broth with flour, salt, and black pepper. Whisk together until blended.
Thicken Gravy
Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly until the gravy thickens, about 5-7 minutes.
Serve Gravy
Once thickened, remove from heat and keep warm until ready to serve.
