Recipe Description

Make your kids’ dreams come true with this Baked Macaroni Cheese Pie! We love mac and cheese, right? And we definitely love pies! So I thought, why not put the two together! This macaroni pie is super easy to put together. It’s a bit like assembling a lasagna, but even simpler – layers of elbow macaroni, grated cheddar cheese and the milky egg sauce to bring it all together.

Baked until the top is a beautiful golden brown, a slice of this pie is cheesy, creamy and delicious. Because it’s less runny than a bowl of mac n cheese, I usually take the opportunity to plate it up next to a small fresh salad with a zingy dressing. And the kids still devour it all!

To make the Baked Macaroni Cheese Pie, you will need the following ingredients:
