In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Gradually whisk in the flour until a roux forms; cook for about 2 minutes until light golden.
Slowly add the milk while whisking continuously to prevent lumps.
Cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring until thickened to your desired consistency.
Season with salt and pepper; adjust as needed.
