1

Start by boiling gluten-free pasta according to package instructions until al dente.

2

Grate about 2 to 3 cups total of the white cheddar and sharp cheddar cheeses.

3

Grate about half a cup of the Parmesan cheese.

4

Take the Belton triple cream brie out of the fridge to soften.

5

In a 12-inch cast iron skillet, cook uncured bacon until crispy, then add 1 tablespoon of unsalted butter to the skillet.

6

Once the butter has melted, add 2 tablespoons of Bob's Red Mill gluten-free flour to the skillet and stir for 1 to 2 minutes to cook the flour without burning it.

7

Add 8 to 9 ounces of water to the skillet, stirring to create a thick yet creamy mixture, and then add 1 to 2 cups of heavy whipping cream, using about three-quarters of the package.

8

If the sauce gets too thick, add another 8 ounces of water as needed to reach the desired consistency.

9

Season the sauce with about 1 teaspoon of sea salt and a pinch of cayenne pepper, then bring to a boil.

10

Once boiling, gradually add the grated cheeses, reserving about 1 cup for topping later, and stir until melted and smooth.

11

Pour the cheese sauce over the cooked gluten-free pasta in a casserole dish, mixing well to ensure all pasta is coated.

12

Top the mac and cheese with the reserved cheese, focusing on the edges for a crispy crust.

13

Bake in the oven at 425 degrees for about 20 minutes on the lower rack until browned on top.
