Instructions

  1. First, preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.
  2. Cook gluten free pasta according to package directions. Drain, rinse under cold water and set aside.
  3. Add 3 tablespoons butter to a skillet over low medium heat. Whisk until melted.
  4. Once butter is melted, whisk in gluten free flour. Continue whisking to create a slurry.
  5. Pour in milk. Stir to combine. Remove skillet from heat.
  6. Add in gruyere cheese, cheddar cheese, sea salt, pepper and nutmeg. Stir until sauce has thickened to the texture of cream.
  7. Add the cooked pasta to the skillet. Stir until pasta is coated.
  8. Pour this mixture into a large baking dish.
  9. In a small bowl, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter. Stir in gluten free breadcrumbs.
  10. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on top of pasta.
  11. Bake for 30 to 35 minutes or until topping is golden and mac and cheese is bubbly.
  12. Lastly, remove from oven. Serve hot and fresh.

Notes

  • Feel free to use any type of gluten free pasta.
  • Continuously whisk butter and flour to create a slurry.  Be careful.  This can easily burn.
  • Gruyere cheese adds such a great depth of flavor.  I recommend using all 2 cups and not substituting.
  • Bake until breadcrumbs are golden and mac and cheese is bubbly.
  • Store leftovers in the fridge for up to 3 days.
  • To reheat, add leftovers to a skillet with 1 to 2 tablespoons of milk.  You may need more milk to prevent dryness.
