MACARONI AND CHEESE – INSTANT POT RECIPES



Macaroni and Cheese – Instant Pot Recipes image

This is a creamy, cheesy, classic mac ‘n’ cheese! The macaroni cooks in vegetable or chicken broth, and there’s no straining or draining required. For a change of pace, switch out the Cheddar cheese for Fontina, Gruyère, or smoked Gouda.

Provided by Coco Morante

Prep Time 5 minutes

Cook Time 6 minutes

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pound elbow macaroni
4 cups chicken broth (or vegetable broth, low sodium)
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
12 ounces sharp Cheddar cheese (shredded, 3 cups tightly packed)
1/2 cup Parmesan cheese (shredded, about 2 ounces)
1/2 cup sour cream
1 1/2 teaspoons yellow mustard
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper

Steps:

  • Combine the macaroni, broth, and butter in the Instant Pot.
  • Secure the lid and set the Steam Release to Sealing. Select the Manual setting and set the cooking time for 6 minutes at high pressure.  Perform a quick release by moving the Steam Release to Venting.
  • Open the pot and stir in the cheeses, sour cream, mustard, and cayenne pepper. Let sit for 5 minutes to thicken, then stir again and serve.

Pioneer Woman Macaroni & Cheese Recipe - Food.com image

Made this just a few days ago and it is super Yummy! I don't think I'll make Mac and Cheese any other way. I really loved the hint of garlic. Although I'll probably cut back on the salt next time, my own fault. Otherwise make a batch and just dig in!

Total Time 38 minutes

Prep Time 3 minutes

Cook Time 35 minutes

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

4 cups macaroni (uncooked)
1/4 cup butter (1/2 stick, 4 tablespoons)
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 1/2 cups whole milk
2 teaspoons dry mustard (more if desired)
1 egg (beaten)
1 lb cheese (grated)
1/2 teaspoon salt (more to taste)
1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt (more to taste)
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
cayenne pepper (optional, to taste)
paprika (optional, to taste.)
thyme (optional, to taste.)

Steps:

  • Cook macaroni until very firm. Macaroni should be too firm to eat right out of the pot. Drain.
  • In a small bowl, beat egg.
  • n a large pot, melt butter and sprinkle in flour. Whisk together over medium-low heat. Cook mixture for five minutes, whisking constantly. Don’t let it burn.
  • Pour in milk, add mustard, and whisk until smooth. Cook for five minutes until very thick. Reduce heat to low.
  • Take 1/4 cup of the sauce and slowly pour it into beaten egg, whisking constantly to avoid cooking eggs. Whisk together till smooth.
  • Pour egg mixture into sauce, whisking constantly. Stir until smooth.
  • Add in cheese and stir to melt.
  • Add salts and pepper. Taste sauce and add more salt and seasoned salt as needed! DO NOT UNDERSALT. (Also becareful not to over salt.).
  • Pour in drained, cooked macaroni and stir to combine.
  • Serve immediately (very creamy) or pour into a buttered baking dish, top with extra cheese, and bake for 20 to 25 minutes or until bubbly and golden on top.
  • Either way YUM YUM YUM! (Try not to eat the whole pot!).
