Creamed Peas On Toast
This Creamed Peas on Toast recipe is very nostalgic to me. I grew up eating it as a kid in the 90s. This recipe uses frozen peas, but it still tastes just as good (and even better, in my opinion) as the classic version with canned peas.
Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons butter (plus more for spreading on toast)
- 2 tablespoons flour
- 1 cup milk
- 1 ½ cups frozen peas (or 14-ounce canned peas; drained)
- ½ teaspoon coarse kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 4 slices bread
Instructions
- Bring a small pot of water to a boil. Add the frozen peas and cook for 1 minute. Drain. If you're using canned peas, you can skip this step.
- Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat. Add flour and stir constantly for 2-3 minutes until the color changes to a light golden and stops foaming.
- Slowly pour in the milk and stir constantly until the mixture thickens. Add the black pepper, salt, and drained peas. Cook for 1 minute.
- Toast four pieces of bread and spread butter on each one.
- Scoop some creamed peas over the buttered toast and optionally add some more ground pepper on top. Enjoy!
