Butternut Squash Macaroni and Cheese
This Butternut Squash Macaroni and Cheese is the creamiest, cheesiest, most delicious recipe you'll make this fall.
Ingredients
- 1 pound elbow macaroni
- 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 3 tablespoons all purpose flour
- 1 cup whole milk
- 3 cups grated cheddar cheese
- 1 17-ounce box butternut squash soup
- 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F
- Cook pasta in salted water for about 3 minutes less than package directions call for, until al dente.
- While the pasta is cooking, in a large pot melt the butter and then add the flour, whisking continuously over low-medium heat for 2-3 minutes to make a roux. Slowly whisk in the milk and bring to a boil.
- Reduce heat and simmer, whisking occasionally for 3-4 minutes, or until the sauce is gently bubbling and starting to thicken.
- Add the cheese, butternut squash soup, and salt. Whisk until cheese is melted.
- Stir in the pasta, transfer to a greased 13 x 9 inch baking dish and bake for 20 minutes, until the cheese is bubbling and the pasta is set. You can also serve this straight off the stove top without baking.
