Time 3h25m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 11

6 cups water
1 (7.25 ounce) package macaroni and cheese dinner mix (such as Kraft®)
¼ cup milk
4 tablespoons margarine
¾ cup shredded sharp Cheddar cheese
nonstick cooking spray
½ cup panko bread crumbs
½ cup seasoned bread crumbs
½ teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon garlic powder
2 eggs, beaten

Steps:

  • Pour water into a bowl and bring to a boil over high heat. Stir in macaroni pasta from dinner package. Cook until tender, stirring occasionally, 7 to 8 minutes. Drain; do not rinse. Return to the pot and stir in included cheese sauce, milk, and margarine. Add Cheddar cheese and stir until well combined and cheese is melted.
  • Refrigerate macaroni and cheese until firm, 2 hours to overnight.
  • Scoop macaroni and cheese into 1 1/2-inch balls and place on a parchment paper-lined cookie sheet. Freeze for 1 hour.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) according to manufacturer's instructions. Spray the basket with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Mix panko, bread crumbs, salt, and garlic powder together in a medium bowl. Dip each ball in beaten eggs and then in panko mixture.
  • Place mac and cheese balls into the air fryer basket in a single layer, making sure they are not touching; cook in batches if necessary.
  • Cook in the preheated air fryer for 6 to 8 minutes. Turn over and fry until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes more.

Categories     Macaroni and Cheese

Time 35m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 ½ cups elbow macaroni
2 tablespoons bacon grease
1 clove garlic, minced
1 tablespoon flour
1 ½ cups milk
1 tablespoon crumbled cooked bacon
1 teaspoon dried Italian herbs
¼ cup grated sharp Cheddar cheese
¼ cup freshly grated Parmesan cheese
¼ grated Colby-Monterey Jack cheese
¼ cup ricotta cheese
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons Italian-seasoned bread crumbs
olive oil cooking spray

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of lightly salted water to a boil. Cook elbow macaroni in the boiling water, stirring occasionally, until almost firm to the bite, about 6 minutes. Drain.
  • Meanwhile, melt bacon grease in a small cast iron skillet that fits in your air fryer over medium heat. Add garlic and cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir flour into the hot bacon grease until golden brown, making a roux. Slowly whisk in milk and simmer until thickened, about 5 minutes.
  • Stir in bacon and Italian herbs. Mix in Cheddar, Parmesan, Colby-Monterey Jack, and ricotta cheeses, and season with salt and pepper. Stir until cheese has melted, about 3 minutes.
  • Preheat an air fryer to 390 degrees F (195 degrees C).
  • Fold pasta into the cheese sauce and top with bread crumbs. Spritz with olive oil and pat down to minimize fly-away crumbs.
  • Air-fry until the top is golden brown and the cheese is bubbling up at the edge of the skillet, about 15 minutes.
