How to Make Southern Baked Mac & Cheese (No Flour, No Eggs!)
Baby, when I tell you this Southern baked mac and cheese is that girl, believe me. This is the recipe I grew up on — creamy, cheesy, and full of flavor without overcomplicating it. No flour. No eggs. No 15-seasoning blend. Just the basics done RIGHT.
In this video, I’m showing you exactly how I make my signature mac and cheese using cornstarch instead of flour and seasoning it with only salt and pepper — because this is mac and cheese, not chicken, okay?
And the real secret? Hooped cheese.
If you’re from the South, you already know hooped cheese is a cultural staple. It melts beautifully, adds the perfect sharpness, and takes this mac to a whole new level of nostalgia and flavor. It’s a true memory on a plate.
If you want this recipe plus so many more of my Southern staples, grab my cookbook Memories on a Plate — it’s filled with the dishes I grew up on and the stories behind them.
