📝 Preparation Steps
1
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil then add macaroni and cook until just under al dente.

Meanwhile, melt butter in a 3 quart saucepan over medium heat. Add garlic then saute until very fragrant and just barely turning golden brown, ⏱️ 1 minute. Sprinkle in gluten-free flour then whisk for ⏱️ 1 minute. Slowly stream in milk while whisking constantly to create a smooth sauce then season with salt and pepper and turn heat up to medium-high to bring milk to a simmer — NOT a boil — stirring constantly.
