Ingredients

  • 12 Hard Boiled Eggs*
  • 1/2 Cup Butter 1 stick
  • 1/2 Cup Flour
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 1/4 tsp Ground Pepper
  • 3 Cups Whole Milk
  • 2 Packages Pillsbury Grands Biscuits or a Loaf of Toasted Bread

Instructions

Preparation

  • Peel the boiled eggs and slice in half. Separate the egg whites and yolks.
  • Chop the egg whites to your desired size. Set aside.
  • Using the back of a spoon, push the egg yolks through a fine mesh strainer to create the 'yolk sprinkles'.
  • Bake biscuits according to package directions or prepare toast.

Egg White Gravy

  • In a 3qt saucepan, melt butter over medium/low heat.
  • Once melted, slowly add the flour, salt and pepper while whisking.
  • Continue to cook while whisking frequently until sauce is smooth and bubbly. (about 3-4 minutes)
  • Slowly add the milk while whisking.
  • Continue to cook and stir frequently until sauce begins to lightly boil. (about 13 minutes)
  • Boil while stirring constantly for 1-2 minutes. The consistency should be a thin gravy.
  • Remove from heat and fold in the chopped egg whites. Salt and pepper to taste.
  • Serve egg white gravy over biscuits or toast. Top with the egg yolk sprinkles.

Notes

*I use the Martha Stewart Hard Boiled Egg method*
**If using colored Easter eggs, any dye on the egg whites will color the gravy**
