Simple Mac and Cheese Recipe without Flour
Ingredients
1.5 cup shredded cheddar cheese or other creamy, well-melting cheese
1 cup shredded Gruyere cheese or other flavorful, well-melting cheese
½ teaspoon paprika powder
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
1.5 cup macaroni pasta or gluten-free / 100% corn macaroni
1.5 cup heavy cream
1 cup milk or cream / half and half
Directions
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
Bring out a round oven dish that’s about 6×2 inches (15×5 cm) or a different shape but similar in size. Place the two types of cheese in the dish and mix well.
Season with paprika powder, salt and black pepper, and mix well.
Add macaroni pasta and mix again. Then use a spoon to even out the surface.
Pour in the cream and milk, then use a spoon to ensure all pieces of macaroni and cheese are submerged.
Bake in the middle of the oven for 30 minutes, then remove from the oven and mix gently.
Place back in the oven for 15 more minutes. With 5 minutes left, raise the heat to 400°F (200°C).
Remove from the oven and allow to rest for at least 10 minutes before serving.
