Ingredients
  

For the Creamed Beef

Preparation
  1. Melt the butter in a sturdy pan over medium heat.
  2. Add the flour and stir for about a minute to make a roux.
  3. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to avoid lumps.
  4. Allow the mixture to bubble gently until it thickens.

  6. If clumps form, strain the sauce through a mesh strainer for a smooth finish.
  7. Serve the creamy mixture over toasted bread.

Notes

This dish can also be served over English muffins, crispy hashbrowns, or in a breakfast sandwich. You can substitute margarine for butter and almond milk for regular milk if needed. Add a splash of hot sauce or garlic powder for extra flavor.
