Serves: makes 24 mini bites | Prep: 10 min | Cook: 15–20 min
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked macaroni
- 1 cup grated cheese (cheddar works perfectly)
- 1 egg
- ¼ cup milk
- salt & pepper
Method
- Preheat oven to 180 °C and grease a 24-cup mini muffin tin really well.
- Mix all ingredients together in a bowl until everything is nicely coated.
- Spoon the mixture into the greased mini muffin tins (press down lightly).
- Bake for 15–20 minutes until golden and crispy on top.
- Let cool 5 minutes before popping them out — they’ll hold their shape perfectly.
Pro Tips & Optional Add-Ons
- Extra crispy top: sprinkle a little more cheese on each bite before baking
- Flavour boost: add a pinch of garlic powder, paprika, or mustard powder
- Bacon lover: mix in finely chopped crispy bacon
- Make ahead: freeze after baking — reheat at 180 °C for 8–10 min straight from frozen
- Dipping sauce: serve with ketchup, sweet chilli, or ranch
