ham gravy

Directions :

1. Using a spatula, scrape up any brown bits from the baking dish of the ham into the reserved drippings. Set aside.
2. In a medium skillet, combine butter and flour over medium heat. Cook for 2 minutes while stirring.
3. Gradually add the milk and ham drippings, whisking until smooth after each addition. Once added, bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce to a simmer and let simmer for 2 to 3 minutes or until thickened.
4. Remove from the heat and stir in extra salt and black pepper to taste.
