Gluten Free Bechamel Sauce

Bechamel sauce that is gluten free and vegan friendly; much lighter than the traditional sauce, this bechamel sauce is perfect in a lasagna, pasta or bake.

I've always had a fondness for this white sauce which originates from France, dating as far back as the 17th century. Traditionally, bechamel sauce is made with white roux; equal parts flour and fat. This version differs in that the flour is gluten-free and the fat is a non-animal. So I kinda don't feel as guilt enjoying it.
