Instructions

  • Tips

    • If you only have mini muffin pans that make 12 minis at a time, simply bake the bites in batches.
  • Step 1

    Heat the oven to 425°F with oven racks positioned in the center of the oven. Meanwhile, cook the elbow macaroni according to the package instructions, drain, and set aside. Meanwhile, combine melted butter and panko in a small bowl. Lightly grease two 24 cup (1 3/4-inch) mini muffin pan. Scoop 1/2 teaspoon of buttered panko into the bottom of each mini muffin cup, spreading it out to cover the bottom of the muffin cup.  Put the rest of the buttered panko aside to use as topping.

  • Step 2

    Whisk the soup, milk, and eggs in a medium bowl. Add cheese and stir until well combined. Add cooked elbow macaroni and mix to coat with the soup mixture. Spoon about 1 tablespoon elbow macaroni mixture into each muffin-pan cup. Gently press the mixture down in each cup. Top each mini muffin cup with 1/2 teaspoon of buttered panko.

  • Step 3

    Bake for 20-25 minutes or until golden brown. Bake both muffin tins in the oven at the same time, each on their own rack and switching racks halfway through baking. Let stand for 10 minutes before removing the minis from the muffin pan. To remove from pan, run a knife or thin spatula around the edges to release.
