For an extra creamy texture, try using a blend of Cheddar and Gruyere cheese. Add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the breadcrumb topping for a subtle kick. To prevent sticking, ensure your baking dish is thoroughly greased or use a non-stick baking spray. Feel free to experiment with different types of gluten-free pasta. Rotini or penne work well too. This dish can be prepared ahead of time. Assemble the macaroni and cheese, cover, and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 10-15 minutes to the baking time when baking from cold.
