HASH BROWN MAC AND CHEESE CUPS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Grease a 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray.
• Divide the hash browns between the muffin tin cups and firmly press into the base and up the sides of each to create a cup shape. Bake until golden around the edges, 25 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, cook the macaroni in a large pot of salted boiling water according to package instructions. Drain and set aside.
• Melt 2 tablespoons of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1 minute. Add the milk and whisk constantly until the milk thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Reduce the heat to low and add the salt, cayenne and nutmeg. Slowly fold in the Gruyere and Cheddar and stir until the cheeses are melted, about 2 minutes. Stir in the macaroni.
• Divide the macaroni among the hash brown cups. Bake until the tops of the cups are golden brown, 10 to 15 minutes.
• Meanwhile, melt the remaining 1 tablespoon butter and combine with the breadcrumbs.
• Remove the mac and cheese from the oven, top with the breadcrumbs and bake until the breadcrumbs are golden brown, about 5 more minutes. Top with chives.

DOUGHNUT PAN EGG SANDWICHES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Lightly coat a 6-cavity nonstick doughnut pan with nonstick spray.
• Crack the eggs into a large liquid measuring cup and whisk until no streaks remain; sprinkle with salt. Divide the eggs among the cavities of the doughnut pan and top with the bacon and chives. Carefully place the pan on a sheet tray and bake until the eggs are set and slightly puffed up, 8 to 10 minutes. Cool slightly, then remove the eggs from the doughnut pan.
• Meanwhile, split open the bagels. Top the bottom halves with American cheese pieces and transfer to a sheet tray. Spread the top halves with butter and place them butter-side down on the sheet tray. Bake until the cheese is melted and the buttered bagels are starting to turn golden brown, about 4 minutes.
• Top the cheese half of a bagel with an egg ring and drizzle on some ketchup. Season with salt and pepper and cover with the butter half of the bagel. Repeat with the remaining bagels, egg rings and ketchup to make 5 more sandwiches.

BAKED ONION RINGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Line two baking sheets with parchment paper. Lightly spray the parchment paper with olive oil cooking spray.
• Stir together the buttermilk and cornstarch in a shallow bowl.
• Stir together the flour, cornmeal, Parmesan cheese and House seasoning in a baking dish.
• Coat the onion slices by placing each slice into the buttermilk mixture allow excess to drip before coating in the seasoned cornmeal. Then place the coated rings in a single layer on the baking sheets. Repeat until all onion rings are coated. Give the onion rings a light spray with non-stick baking spray. Bake until golden brown, about 20-25 minutes flipping once halfway through and serve hot.
• Stir together the garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt and pepper in a small bowl.

MAC & CHEESE RING

Steps:

• Mac 'n' Cheese:.
• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Grease a 12 cup bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray. Coat pan with bread crumbs as if flouring the pan.
• In a dutch oven melt butter over medium high heat. Once the butter has melted whisk in the flour to form a roux. Gradually whisk in milk until there are no lumps. Whisk in both cheeses.
• Once the mixture is smooth turn off the heat and stir in the cooked pasta and bacon. Season with salt and pepper.
• Stirring quickly add the eggs being sure not to let them scramble.
• Spoon the mixture in the prepared bundt pan. Use a spatula to press the pasta down to create an even layer. Sprinkle the bread crumbs over the top and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown.
• Allow to cool for 15 minutes. Use a rubber spatula to loosen the sides of the pan before removing.
• Serve with cheese sauce and garnish with crumbled bacon and chives.
• Cheese sauce:.
• Bring the half and half to a simmer in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the cheese in small handfuls and whisk until smooth.

GREEN ONION-CHEDDAR DOUGHNUT

Steps:

• Heat the oil to 365 to 375 degrees F in a cast-iron Dutch oven over medium heat.
• In a large bowl, mix together the flour, cheese, scallions, sugar, baking powder, salt and baking soda. In a smaller bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, sour cream and egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry and mix to combine, making sure there are no dry bits left.
• Turn the dough out onto a floured surface and lightly coat with flour. Pat the dough into a 1-inch disc. Then, using a large glass dipped into flour, cut out rounds for the doughnuts. Press the dough back together to cut out another doughnut or 2. Dip your finger into the flour, then press it into the center of each doughnut while it is on the floured surface to create a hole. Move your finger around in the hole to make it larger. Turn the doughnut over and repeat on the other side to make sure the hole is clear and large.
• When the oil is ready, place the doughnuts into the oil carefully and fry for 3 to 4 minutes per side. The doughnuts are thick and take time to cook all the way through. You can flip them every minute to keep them from browning too much on each side. Transfer the doughnuts to a paper towel-lined baking sheet and sprinkle with a little salt. Serve immediately.

EXTRA-CRUNCHY SHEET-PAN MAC AND CHEESE

Steps:

• Position a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat to 450 degrees F. Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the macaroni, and cook according to package directions until al dente. Drain the macaroni, reserving 1 1/2 cups of the pasta water. Set aside.
• Heat the half-and-half, cream cheese, and reserved pasta water in a large pot over medium heat, stirring until the cream cheese is completely melted and the mixture just comes to a simmer. Remove from heat and add the Cheddar, Monterey Jack, Dijon mustard, and hot sauce, whisking until the cheeses are melted and the sauce is smooth.
• Add the macaroni to the pot and stir to combine. (It will look very loose, but the pasta will absorb some of the sauce as it bakes.) Season to taste with salt if desired. Spread the macaroni mixture on an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan.
• Toss the panko, butter and 1/2 teaspoon salt together in a medium bowl and sprinkle evenly over the pasta. Bake until the cheese is bubbly and the bread crumbs are brown and crisp, rotating halfway through, 20 to 25 minutes.
