5-Ingredient Creamed Eggs on Toast

Instructions

  1. Boil the eggs
    Place the eggs in a saucepan and cover with water. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer for 9–10 minutes. Drain, cool in cold water, peel, and chop the eggs.
  2. Make the creamy sauce
    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat.
    Add the flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute to create a smooth roux.
  3. Add the milk
    Gradually pour in the milk while whisking constantly to avoid lumps.
    Continue cooking and stirring until the sauce thickens, about 4–5 minutes.
  4. Add the eggs
    Stir in the chopped eggs and season with salt and pepper.
    Let the mixture simmer gently for 2–3 minutes, allowing flavors to combine.
  5. Prepare the toast
    Toast the bread slices until golden and crisp.
  6. Assemble and serve
    Spoon the creamy egg mixture over the toast.
    Serve immediately while warm and creamy.
