Simple 5-Ingredient Southern Depression-Era Milk Gravy

Ingredients

2 cups whole milk

2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

2 tablespoons unsalted butter

Salt and pepper to taste

Biscuits or toast for serving
Directions
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.

Gradually whisk in the flour until a smooth paste forms, cooking for about 2 minutes.
Slowly pour in the milk while whisking continuously to prevent lumps from forming.
Cook the mixture, stirring frequently, until it thickens to your desired consistency.
Season the gravy with salt and pepper, adjusting the seasoning to taste.
Serve the milk gravy hot over biscuits or toast for a classic Southern treat.
