1 cup homemade or low sodium chicken stock

1. Add the sage leaves to the roasting pan with the drippings from roasting the turkey.
2. Place the pan over medium heat and allow the sage to infuse the fat and heat until the leaves start to stick to the bottom of the pan.
3. Deglaze the pan by slowly adding the apple cider, stirring to scrape up the brown bits. Simmer for 3 minutes.
4. Whisk together the flour and chicken stock in a separate container until smooth.
5. Slowly pour the stock/flour mixture into the pan and stir continuously until it reaches the desired consistency, 5 to 10 minutes. Remove the sage leaves and add salt and pepper to taste. less
