Make the Gravy
  1. In a large skillet, melt the butter over medium heat.
  2. Stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until foamy and slightly nutty.
  3. Gradually whisk in the whole milk, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
  4. Cook until the mixture thickens, then add black pepper.

Notes

You can make the gravy ahead of time and reheat with a splash of milk. Best served hot over toast, but can also be paired with biscuits, English muffins, or hash browns.
