AIR FRYER MAC AND CHEESE NO BOIL | Richard in the kitchen

In this video I show ya'll how to make air fryer mac and cheese. This all-time favorite comfort food is so delicious and so easy to make in the air fryer. There's no need to boil the macaroni. That's right! Just throw all of the ingredients in the air fryer basket and in about 20 minutes you'll have a creamy cheesy mac and cheese.

Shopping List:
1 1/2 cups elbow macaroni
1 cup water
1/2 heavy cream
3/4 cup block sharp cheddar cheese, freshly shredded. (pre-shredded is okay but won't melt as well)
1/2 tsp. kosher salt
1/2 tsp. black pepper
1.2 tsp. garlic powder

Directions:
Add all ingredients except for 1/4 of the cheese to a 6-7 inch high sided cake pan and mix well then place it in the air fryer basket.
Pre-heat air fryer on 360F for 3 minutes.
Set the air fryer to 360 for 18-20 minutes. Halfway through add the remaining cheese and mix. Continue to cook.
When done, remove the pan and allow to cool for about 10 minutes. It will look liquidy, but no worries, it will thicken as it sits.
Enjoy!

Richard my good friend, great recipe, we will all like this one, especially my 2 little grand daughters. I'm with you on shredding your own cheese, they coat that pre-shredded cheese with corn starch or something to keep it from clumping up, but it somehow takes away the flavor, you and ol' Tucker have a good evening.

This was so helpful and it was so delicious 😋 !! Put my macaroni in a pyrex & used milk instead of heavy cream and it work just fine!!

I'm disabled and am leery about using the stove for anything because boiled water can get heavy and dangerous when picking it up with one arm. I'm stoked to try this.

[Samridhi_]

It is actually so yummy.. I tried it alone when no other person was there to help me out ❤

[jamesc]

This is awesome! I just tried it. God bless you

Great recipe and video.

One thing I will say is this recipe is more for if you want a Velveeta/Kraft pasta in bechamel cheese sauce style Mac n cheese.

If you want a a more baked style Mac n cheese then follow this recipe, but then instead of letting it rest and thicken:

1)while it finishes air frying mix some bread crumbs, a little salt and butter in a bowl, .microwave for about 30 second to melt the butter and stir the mixture together

2) when the dish finishes air frying, take it out and cover with the bread crumbs.

3) set the air fryer to bake at the same temp of 360, .for ten minutes


It came out perfect!!

Have you any ideas about adding ham cubes to the mix? Or broccoli, making it a one pot meal?

[anthonycampos]

Id love to see you make pancakes or any kind of dessert.

So incredible 🤩🤩 even tho i used normal milk instead of heavy cream it was nice but i think it neads a sauce to break the taste ❤

[Tayisdabomb]

My mom is about to make this, im kinda scared lol because we dont have any cheese. But it looks good, ill tell u how it goes haha

[gamingnation]

How can I make this without heavy cream or milk?

[fabysco]

Was confused at the 360 temperature first. Took me a moment to realise you’re not using Celsius.
So for any normal person that uses Metric system, it’s about 180C

[ashescreepypasta]

Wow now that's what I'm talking about... Don't have to use so many equipment to make it...I luv it... Ty for your amazing recipe that excites me even more.... Yes she's is going to learn to cook...😁
