So here is how you can easily make this baked mac and cheese following this simple and easy recipe for eggless, flourless baked mac and cheese. How To Make Easy Baked Mac And Cheese Without Roux (Flour) And No EggsWe use the following ingredients for this recipe. Ingredients to make no boil mac and cheese16 oz dry elbow pasta shells (about 4 cups) 2 cups water 4 cups whole milk 1 stick butter 5 cups shredded cheese I use a mix of cheddar and Mexican blend salt adjust to taste 1 teaspoon garlic powder 2 teaspoons onion powder Steps By Step InstructionsPreheat oven to 350 degree Fahrenheit. Layer the dry pasta shells in a single layer in a large sized baking pan or tray (9*13 pan is good). Also add the ingredients water, milk, garlic powder, onion powder and enough salt, stir in evenly. Also place the stick of butter on top. Place the baking tray in the oven, set the timer for one hour to bake the mac and cheese. In about few minutes (about 15 to 20 minutes), the butter will melt and so carefully open the oven and stir in the melted butter with the rest of the ingredients in the pan. The contents will be really hot at this time and also there is a chance of spilling hot liquid from the pan if you move it too much, so be careful while doing so. To avoid this step, you may add melted butter early in the process and mix in. Once the butter is stirred in, close the oven and bake for the rest of the time until the top begins to lightly brown and the inside is cooked. Check the contents in between (after about 50 minutes of time), since the oven temperatures can vary and in some cases the dish may get cooked early. Once the pasta is baked (we baked it for about an hour) and the top starts to lightly brown, carefully open the oven and add 4 cups of shredded cheese also to the pan and mix in with the cooked pasta. The pasta shells may seem to stuck together as they are baked, but you can use a spoon to mix the cheese within the baked pasta carefully. Make sure to mix the cheese evenly with the pasta. Layer the remaining one cup of shredded cheese to the top of the pasta evenly. If you wish, you may add slightly more amount of cheese on top. To get the most delicious cheesy baked mac and cheese which is lightly golden brown in color, increase the oven temperature to 400 degree Fahrenheit and bake for another 7 to 10 minutes or until the cheese is melted and the cheese on top is also completely melted and lightly browned on top! This last step of increasing the oven temperature to do the final baking is very important, as it helps to bake the perfect mac and cheese that is delicious and golden brown when baked. Enjoy the baked mac and cheese while it is still slightly hot or warm for the best results. If serving later, you may reheat it in the oven as you usually do. Tips To Make The Best Baked Mac And CheeseTo make the best and easy baked mac and cheese without roux or extra flour, make sure to use the best quality macaroni pasta shells (elbow pasta shells). I recommend using the regular kind of pasta shells for this (not gluten free or whole wheat or any other kind) for the best results. I am not sure if gluten free pasta or any other kind of pasta like whole wheat pasta or chickpea pasta will work for this recipe since I haven’t tried them myself. Sof if you are not on a specific diet, stick with regular macaroni pasta shells for this baked mac and cheese recipe. The kind of cheese that you use for this baked mac and cheese recipe is very important as it decides the flavor and cheesy texture of the baked mac and cheese. Make sure to use the recommended amount of cheese for the recipe, or it may not turn out good. The cheese in the dish helps the pasta to thicken so if you use less cheese, it may end up with a lot of liquid mess. To avoid this, make sure to use the recommended amount of cheese! Also, it is very important to use good quality cheese. If you can, it is always best to shred the cheese yourself at home. If you use packaged shredded cheese, make sure you are familiar with the cheese that you are using and its good for baking. Because some of the shredded cheese comes with extra ingredients and may make the pasta dry when it cooks. So use the cheese that you normally use for pasta dishes so you know its of good quality! I recommend a mix of Mexican blend and cheddar cheese, which is what I prefer, but you may try other shredded cheese which you prefer also but make sure to use good quality cheese that you normally use in pasta. Can you make mac and cheese without milk?If you want to make mac and cheese without milk, you will need to replace the milk with any substitutes for milk.
