Step 1
Melt butter in a large skillet over medium-high heat until foamy, about 60 seconds.
Step 2
Add mushrooms and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and liquid evaporates, ~5 minutes.
Step 3
Sprinkle flour over mushrooms and stir constantly for 60 seconds until it smells toasty.
Step 4
Pour in milk and broth slowly while whisking to avoid lumps. Add thyme and a pinch of salt.
Step 5
Simmer gently for 3 minutes, stirring often, until gravy thickens and coats the back of a spoon.
Step 6
Taste and adjust salt and black pepper. Remove thyme and serve hot over biscuits or toast.
