Hard-boiled eggs are paired with creamy white gravy and buttered toast in this old-school Southern dish. It's just the thing for Easter breakfast.

Directions

  1. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Add flour; whisk until nutty and golden, 1 to 2 minutes. Whisk in milk; bring to a gentle boil, whisking constantly, until mixture thickens to consistency of gravy, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, season with salt and pepper, and cover to keep warm.

  2. Cut eggs in half. Remove yolks and press through a medium-mesh sieve, or mince them. Chop whites; stir into bechamel. Toast and butter bread. Divide bechamel mixture evenly among toasts; sprinkle evenly with yolks. Top with chives, paprika, and pepper. Serve immediately.

Cook's Notes

If the bechamel gets too stiff before it's slathered on the toast, just rewarm it over low heat.
