How to Make Egg Gravy For 2

  1. Heat an 8-10 inch nonstick skillet over medium heat.
  2. Crack 2 eggs into the skillet and discard the shells.
  3. Gently pierce the egg yolks with a fork. Cook until the whites are set and the yolks are no longer runny (about 3-4 minutes).
  4. Season the cooked eggs lightly with salt and pepper, if desired.
  5. Remove the cooked eggs from the skillet and set aside.
  6. Add 2 tablespoons of butter to the skillet and melt completely over low heat.
  7. Gradually whisk in 2 tablespoons of flour, ensuring no lumps form. Cook for 1-2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and bubbly.
  8. Slowly whisk in 1/4 cup of heavy whipping cream, continually stirring to prevent lumps.
  9. Continue stirring until the sauce is smooth and creamy.
  10. Gradually whisk in 1/4 cup of skim milk, a little at a time, until fully incorporated.
  11. Increase the heat to medium-low and bring the gravy to a gentle simmer.
  12. Simmer for 1-2 minutes, or until the gravy has thickened to your desired consistency.
  13. Reduce heat to low. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  14. Chop the cooked eggs and stir them into the gravy, or place one egg on each serving of toast.
  15. Spoon the gravy over the eggs and toast, if using. Serve immediately and enjoy!
