Instant Pot Creamy Mac Cheese Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the pasta, water, butter, salt, mustard, garlic powder and onion powder in a 6-quart Instant Pot. Lock on the lid and set to pressure cook on high for 5 minutes. Allow the pressure to naturally release for 10 minutes, then manually release any residual pressure.
• Carefully open the lid and turn on the sauté function. Stir in the evaporated milk, whole milk, cheddar, mozzarella, cream cheese, black pepper and chili powder until the cheese has melted and is creamy. Turn off the pressure cooker and serve warm.
• Tip: If you want a golden brown topping, you can transfer the mac and cheese to a casserole dish. Top with cheese and bread crumbs, then place under the broiler until golden brown.

Steps:

• Combine water, macaroni, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and pepper in a multi-functional pressure cooker (such as Instant Pot®); stir until well combined. Close and lock the lid. Select high pressure according to manufacturer's instructions; set timer for 6 minutes. Allow 10 to 15 minutes for pressure to build.
• Release pressure carefully using the quick-release method according to manufacturer's instructions, about 5 minutes. Unlock and remove the lid.
• Stir in milk, Cheddar, and Gouda gradually, alternating between a little of the milk and a handful of cheese at a time. Stir until the cheeses are melted. Stir in crumbled bacon and serve.
