Cream Gravy

April 4, 2013

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!
