Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Bread

    Toast the slices of bread until golden brown in a toaster or on a skillet with a little butter.

  2. 2

    Make the Roux

    In a large saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the flour and whisk continuously for about 2 minutes until the mixture turns a light golden color.

  3. 3

    Add Broth

    Slowly pour in the chicken or vegetable broth while whisking to prevent lumps. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth.

  4. 4

    Add Milk and Seasonings

    Stir in the milk, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder. Bring the mixture to a simmer and cook for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens to a gravy-like consistency.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Place the toasted bread on plates and generously ladle the gravy over the top. Garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
