Ingredients

• 12 oz gluten-free pasta (such as penne or rigatoni)
• 3 large eggs
• 8 oz shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 cup whole milk
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter
• 2 tbsp gluten-free all-purpose flour
• 1 tsp garlic powder
• 1 tsp dried oregano
• 0.25 cup fresh basil leaves, chopped
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.5 tsp black pepper

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a little butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Cook the gluten-free pasta according to package directions until al dente. Drain and set aside.

Step 3

In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the gluten-free all-purpose flour and whisk continuously for about 1 minute to form a roux.

Step 4

Gradually add the milk to the roux, whisking constantly until the mixture thickens into a smooth sauce, about 3-4 minutes.

Step 5

Stir in the garlic powder, oregano, salt, and pepper. Remove the saucepan from the heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 6

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs and then slowly add the slightly cooled sauce, whisking continuously to combine.

Step 7

Add the cooked pasta to the egg and sauce mixture, stirring gently to coat the pasta completely.

Step 8

Fold in the shredded mozzarella cheese, half of the grated Parmesan, and chopped basil leaves.

Step 9

Transfer the pasta mixture to the prepared baking dish and spread it evenly.

Step 10

Sprinkle the remaining Parmesan cheese on top to create a golden crust.

Step 11

Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is bubbly and golden brown.

Step 12

Once baked, remove from the oven and let it cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.

Step 13

Garnish with additional fresh basil if desired. Serve warm and enjoy!
