AIR FRYER Cheese and Macaroni

Scrumptious cheese and fries in the air You guys probably had no idea that an air fryer could be used to prepare macaroni and cheese! It is possible, and I am aware of a quick and easy method that eliminates the need to cook the noodles first. My Oven Baked No-Boil Mac & Cheese recipe is baked in this recipe. Once you taste that creamy bite, you will realize how flavorful and easy this recipe is, and you will want to make it again and again. One more reason to purchase an air fryer if you do not already own one! There’s also no need to heat your home. Make this Air Fryer Mac & Cheese if you want to take your mac and cheese game to the next level.

How should leftovers be stored?

This keeps for up to four or five days in the refrigerator when kept in an airtight container.

  1. ½cup dried elbow macaroni; 
  2. ½ cup half-and-half; 
  3. ½ cupVelveeta tiny diced;

  7.  one pinch of optional cayenne pepper,
  8.  and a pinch of salt

Guidelines

  • For ten minutes, preheat the air fryer to 360°F.
  • In a sizable bowl, combine the macaroni noodles, half-and-half, Velveeta, 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese, butter, cayenne (if desired), onion powder, black pepper, and garlic powder while the air fryer is heating up.
  • Mix everything together.
  • Pour the mixture into an air fryer baking dish that has been sprayed with cooking spray.
  • For 15–18 minutes, air fried (please refer to my comment regarding cook times below).
  • Every five minutes, stir to combine the ingredients.
  • Evenly scatter the remaining cheese shreds on top.
  • Fry for a further two to three minutes, or until melted and gently browned. Serve right away.

Notes:

  • Depending on their size, shape, air circulation, heating element, etc., some of the various varieties of air fryers available today may cook food slower or faster than the one I’m using. So please remember that. Just an estimate based on the one I used applies to the cook time. Before shutting off your air fryer, please make sure your noodles are cooked through. Checking your noodles is best done after you Every time, stir them; this promotes uniform cooking of the noodles.
