Ingredients

Method

Directions

  1. 1

    Cook the Pasta

    In a large pot, bring salted water to a boil. Add the elbow macaroni and cook according to package instructions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

  2. 2

    Make the Cheese Sauce

    In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook until the mixture thickens, about 5-7 minutes.

  3. 3

    Add Cheese and Seasoning

    Remove the pot from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until melted. Add salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and mustard powder, stirring to combine.

  4. 4

    Combine Pasta and Sauce

    Add the cooked macaroni to the cheese sauce, stirring until well coated. If using, sprinkle breadcrumbs on top.

  5. 5

    Bake (optional)

    For a baked version, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Transfer the mac & cheese to a baking dish and bake for 20 minutes, until bubbly and golden on top.
