While salted butter is usually advised against in recipes due to health reasons, it\u2019s absolutely delicious in this dish and does a great job of enhancing all the flavors in this recipe.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Make sure your breadcrumbs are golden! For your breadcrumbs to have the ideal flavor, they need to be gently toasted &#8211; don\u2019t be afraid to give them a few extra seconds in the oven until they get that perfect brown coloring. Make sure that all of the butter from the topping is absorbed by the breadcrumbs too &#8211; this will create exceptional flavor!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">More Yummy Recipes You'll Love<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/easy-pumpkin-dessert-recipes\/\">Easy Pumpkin Dessert Recipes<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/instant-pot-feta-pasta\/\">Instant Pot Feta Pasta (TikTok Pasta)<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/instant-pot-cheesy-chicken-pasta\/\">Instant Pot Cheesy Chicken And Pasta<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/spinach-cheese-tortellini-italian-sausage\/\">Spinach Cheese Tortellini With Italian Sausage<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/air-fryer-zucchini-casserole\/\">Air Fryer Zucchini Casserole<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/air-fryer-buffalo-cauliflower\/\">Air Fryer Buffalo Cauliflower<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n<div id=\"recipe\"><\/div><div id=\"wprm-recipe-container-17951\" class=\"wprm-recipe-container\" data-recipe-id=\"17951\" data-servings=\"8\"><div class=\"wprm-recipe wprm-recipe-template-emery\"><div\n  class=\"wprm-layout-container wprm-padding-40 emery-header\"\n  style=\"\n    --wprm-layout-container-background-color: var(--emery-list-border-color);\n  \"\n>\n  <div\n    class=\"wprm-layout-column-container wprm-column-gap-20 wprm-column-rows-recipe-600 wprm-column-rows-reverse wprm-row-gap-20 emery-header-columns\"\n  >\n    <div class=\"wprm-layout-column wprm-align-center\">\n      <div class=\"wprm-recipe-image wprm-block-image-rounded\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"border-width: 0px;border-style: solid;border-color: #666666;border-radius: 20px;width: 300px;max-width: 100%;height: 300px;object-fit: cover;\" width=\"450\" height=\"300\" src=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217.jpg\" class=\"attachment-999999x300 size-999999x300\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/foodnservice.com\/staging\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/11\/PumpkinMac_Cheese-horizontal-image-e1636235106217-735x490.jpg 735w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 450px) 100vw, 450px\" \/><\/div>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"wprm-layout-column wprm-column-width-75 wprm-align-rows-center\">\n      <div\n        class=\"wprm-layout-container emery-header-accent\"\n        style=\"--wprm-layout-container-text-color: var(--emery-accent-color)\"\n      >\n        <span class=\"wprm-recipe-details wprm-recipe-author wprm-block-text-semi-bold\">David Murphy<\/span>\n      <\/div>\n      <h2 class=\"wprm-recipe-name wprm-block-text-normal\">Pumpkin Mac and Cheese<\/h2> <div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 15px;\"><\/div>\n       <div class=\"wprm-spacer\" style=\"height: 15px;\"><\/div> <div class=\"wprm-recipe-summary wprm-block-text-normal\"><span style=\"display: block;\">You&#x27;ll love how creamy and delicious this Pumpkin mac and cheese turns out!
