Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease four 1 1/2 to 2-cup ramekins, or one 2-quart baking dish.
-
Cook the pasta in boiling salted water until al dente (slightly firmer than you would normally eat it). Drain and rinse with cool water. Set aside.
-
In a large saucepan set over medium heat, whisk together the flour, milk, and cheese powder. Bring to a boil.
-
Remove from the heat and stir in the cheese and seasonings. Stir occasionally, until cheese is completely melted.
-
Stir the pasta into the cheese sauce. Spoon it into the baking dish(es).
-
Melt the butter and garlic oil together, then stir in the pizza seasoning and panko bread crumbs. Sprinkle a thick layer over the pasta and cheese.
-
Bake the casserole for 25 to 35 minutes, until bubbly and browned. Remove from the oven, and serve hot.
Tips from our Bakers
-
This recipe is easily doubled. To fill a large casserole or 9" x 13" x 2" pan, double all ingredients, EXCEPT those for the crumb topping. Or, for a more generous crumb topping, feel free to double those ingredients, too.
