Cream Gravy
Print recipe| Serves | 4-6 |
| Cook time | 10 minutes |
| Allergy | Milk, Wheat |
Ingredients
- 4 tablespoons bacon or sausage drippings
- 4 tablespoons flour
- 2 cups milk
- salt and pepper (to taste)
Note
This recipe is easily halved or multiplied. Actually, I usually make half this amount in an 8-inch skillet for the two of us. This makes a generous portion of gravy for each person!
Directions
| Step 1 | |
| Preheat a 10-inch skillet (cast iron works great) over medium heat. Add the drippings and heat until the fat starts to shimmer. | |
| Step 2 | |
| Whisk in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, until it just begins to brown. Add the milk a little at a time, whisking and allowing to thicken after each addition. Continue adding until the gravy reaches the consistency that you like (you may need a little more or a little less than the recipe calls for). | |
| Step 3 | |
| Salt and pepper the gravy to taste and serve with biscuits, toast, chicken-fried steak, mashed potatoes, fries....the list goes on and on! | |
