Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 5 minutes
Total Time 10 minutes

Ingredients

  • 4 Tbsp Salted Butter
  • 4 Tbsp Gluten-Free All-Purpose Flour
  • 1 3/4 Cup Milk
  • 1 tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Onion Powder
  • 1/2 tsp Ground Mustard
  • 1/2 tsp Paprika
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 2 1/2 Cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese

Instructions

  • In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
  • Once melted, whisk in the flour to form a smooth paste or roux. Keep whisking and cooking for 1-2 minutes.
  • Slowly pour in the milk while whisking to prevent lumps.
  • Add the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, ground mustard, and salt. Continue to whisk well.
  • Cook for 1-3 minutes or until the sauce thickens to a smooth, gravy-like consistency.
  • Remove from heat and stir in the shredded cheddar cheese.
  • Mix until fully melted and smooth.
  • Serve.

Notes

Shred your own cheese block; pre-shredded cheese does not melt the same way.
