Instructions

1

Cook the Pasta

Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil and cook the elbow macaroni according to package directions until just al dente, then drain and set aside while you prepare the sauce.

2

Make the Roux

In the same pot over medium heat warm the olive oil, then whisk in the flour and stir constantly for one full minute until the mixture turns a light golden color and smells slightly nutty.

3

Build the Sauce

Slowly pour in the oat milk while whisking continuously to prevent lumps, then add the nutritional yeast, garlic powder, and salt and continue to cook and stir for 3 to 4 minutes until the sauce thickens enough to coat the back of a spoon.

Combine and Serve

Add the drained pasta back into the pot with the sauce and stir well to coat every noodle evenly, taste for seasoning, and serve immediately while hot and creamy.

Common mistakes

Skipping the nutritional yeast removes the cheesy flavor that makes this dish taste authentic
