HOW DO YOU COOK FROZEN MAC AND CHEESE BITES For cooking in the oven from frozen, place on a baking sheet and bake at 400F for 18-20 minutes or until the internal temp is 160F. If your air fryer recommends preheating, do so at 360 degrees F for 3 minutes. HOW DO YOU REHEAT FRIED MACARONI AND CHEESE Bake in the oven at 400F for 5 minutes or place back in the air fryer for 5 minutes at 350 to reheat.

In a deep, oven safe dish that will fit inside your air fryer (I used a 7 inch dish) add the elbow macaroni, water, heavy cream, of the cheese, dry mustard, garlic salt, and black pepper.

Spray mac & cheese bites with cooking spray and fry for 10 12 minutes, working in batches so that they do not touch one another. Dip mac & cheese balls into eggs then roll to coat in seasoned coating mix.

You can use regular Mac and cheese and just add spices to the breadcrumbs like I did! I made an extra batch and froze these Mac and cheese bites! Now whenever I want them, I just pop them out of the freezer and place them in the air fryer for couple of mins and bam, Mac and cheese bites are served. With a small scoop, spoon out about 2 tablespoons macaroni and cheese and shape into 2-round balls. Mac and cheese is definitely one of the best comfort foods (I’m willing to argue about this)… but why stop there when you can take it a step further with these Spicy fried Mac and Cheese Balls? This recipe is perfect for any type of Mac and cheese! I personally love to use my left over spicy Mexican Mac and cheese for this recipe because of the extra kick of spice!
