Equipment

Ingredients
 
 

  • 360 g Gluten-free Macaroni Pasta
  • 60 g Salted Butter
  • 60 g Plain Gluten-Free Flour
  • 600 ml Semi-Skimmed Milk
  • 120 g Full-Fat Cream Cheese
  • 220 g Cheddar Cheese Grated
  • 100 g Gluten-free bread crumbs
  • Pinch Black Pepper
  • 1/2 tsp Nutmeg (optional)

Instructions
 

  • Put your pasta into boiling water and cook for 8-10 minutes. While this is cooking make the cheese sauce.
  • In a saucepan put the gluten-free flour and butter, heat slowly and stir together.
  • Once you have a thick sauce slowly add the milk and keep stirring. If it becomes lumpy don't worry keep stirring.
  • Next add in the cream cheese, black pepper and nutmeg.
  • Once you have a smooth sauce take half of the cheddar cheese and mix in stirring at all times.
  • Your pasta should be cooked by now so drain it well and add the cheese sauce making sure you coat all of the pasta.
  • Transfer the creamy pasta to an oven-proof dish and add the other half of the cheddar cheese and gluten-free breadcrumbs on top.
  • Pop the mac and cheese under a grill for around 10 minutes to allow the cheese to crisp up.
  • Plate up and enjoy, with a crunchy salad or as a side to a meat dish.
