Pumpkin Mac and Cheese Comfort Food

It’s comfort food and pumpkin season which means the occasional indulgence of stovetop pumpkin mac and cheese with kale and crispy shallots #StretchyPantsOn. There’s no roux to make, just a creamy sauce base that includes heavy cream or homemade cashew milk, pumpkin, and cheese. 

For purists, I argue the sneaky pumpkin and kale are easy to include and provide additional benefits, texture and flavor in this pumpkin mac and cheese.

Pile on a sprinkle of crispy shallots and this easy pumpkin macaroni and cheese recipe is elevated to super star status!

Easy Crispy Shallots

While they’re optional in this pumpkin macaroni and cheese recipe, I highly recommend topping this dish with crispy shallots. The crunchy – creamy combo is sublime! In summary, here’s how to make em’ (see recipe card for details):

Simple as ever!

  • Start with a shallow sauce pot, olive oil and a large shallot.
  • Slice the shallot thin while the olive oil heats to shimmering.
  • Toss the shallots in the oil and fry for about 7-9 minutes.
  • Drain, reserving that now fragrant olive oil (sooo good in salad dressings or a drizzle in soup) and set the shallots on a paper towel to dab off any excess oil. They’re ready to use! 

Now we’re ready to make the stovetop pumpkin macaroni and cheese! 

Four images for making pumpkin mac and cheese: 1. in a dutch oven, milk, pumpkin and spices. 2. in a Dutch oven a whisk, sauce and shredded cheddar cheese. 3. In a Dutch oven, blanched kale in pumpkin cheese sauce. 4. In a Dutch oven, cooked pasta, kale and sauce.

Quick Guide: How to Make Stovetop Pumpkin Mac and Cheese 

I like to use a Dutch oven for a lot of stovetop cooking, regardless if the dish is going into the oven. So, I make stovetop mac and cheese in one too, but any medium sauce-pot will do. This simple recipe can be made in one pot. Non-stick or enameled pot is especially helpful here. In summary, here’s how to make it (see recipe card below for full details): 

  • First, cook the pasta until al dente’. Right before the pasta is done, plunge the kale in with the pasta (double duty). Remove the kale to cool, drain the pasta.  
  • Next, in the same pot, whisk whole cream or unsweetened homemade cashew milk, pumpkin puree, garlic and herbs. Stir until just steaming and starting to bubble. Remove from heat and   s  l  o  w  l  y,  whisk in the cheese. Do not attempt to rush this (get in my belly) or the sauce could break. 
  • Third, return pot to stove on lowest heat to finish melting the cheese, add a few dashes of Tabasco or vegetarian Worcestershire and rewarm for a few minutes.
  • Last, chop the kale, stir it into the cheese mixture, add the pasta, salt and stir to combine. Lid on and warm through, on low heat. 

This stovetop mac and cheese is so simple and comes together quick! The key, is low heat and  s l o w  addition of cheese.

Recipe FAQs

Homemade Cashew Milk or Heavy Cream?

Homemade Cashew Milk, you ask? It’s a perfect parter for this pumpkin mac and cheese with kale recipe. Unsweetened, its flavor is neutral and my Homemade Cashew Milk recipe (made without the added sweeteners) provides enough fat in this recipe to stabilize the cheese sauce. I always have it on hand, so it’s what I typically make stovetop mac and cheese with.

However, I’ve also made this with half n’ half and heavy cream. Half n’ half, I’ve learned, doesn’t work because there’s not enough fat in it to stabilize the sauce. Heavy cream, on the other hand, works beautifully.  

Can I use Store Bought Plant Milks or Lower Fat Dairy? 

Many store-bought plant milks are mostly water, and wouldn’t provide enough fat to stabilize the sauce. Also, lower fat dairy wouldn’t provide the necessary fat to bring this sauce together. My experience with half n’ half didn’t turn out too good.

What’s the Best Cheese to Use?

This comes down to flavor preference, but I find cheeses that melt easy and pair well with pumpkin to be best for this pumpkin stovetop mac and cheese. Be sure to buy block cheese and shred it yourself. It melts easier, is more economical, there’s less waste and it doesn’t have added anti-caking ingredients (win-win-win-win!). 

  • White Sharp Cheddar is my favorite for this pumpkin mac and cheese. It melts easy, preserves the color of the pumpkin and I love its flavor. I use Organic Valley Raw Sharp Cheddar. One 8oz package is all you need. 
  • Gruyere would be my second choice. It adds a little grown up flair to your mac and cheese. It’s salty, melts beautifully and has a unique sharp tang. I mean, just check it out in this Grilled Cheese. It’s fabulous with pumpkin too!
  • Gouda is a fine melty cheese for pumpkin macaroni and cheese because of its creamy texture, and mild flavor. I like Roth Organics. For a little smoky boost and grown up flavor, try Smoky Gouda with a dusting of smoky paprika over the top.

There are many cheese combinations to try too. I use a combination of cheeses in this Roasted Cauliflower Mac and Cheese. Next, I’ve got my eye on pepper jack! Play with the flavors and see what curls your toes!

A Few Recipe Notes 

  • Essential Timing: Making crispy shallots is simple enough, but those last few minutes are essential in keeping a close eye on them. They go from just perfect to over done fast. Reserve the olive oil after frying for a fragrant addition to salad dressings, soups, or sauces. 
  • Gluten Free? Use your favorite pasta in this easy pumpkin mac and cheese with kale recipe, gluten free or not. Jovial’s Organic Brown Rice Pasta is fabulous.  
  • Double Duty: Cooking the pasta and kale together saves water and time on clean up. Simply plunge the kale into the pasta water about two minutes before the pasta is done. You’ll use tongs to fish out the whole leaf kale, allow it to cool, chop, then add it to the sauce. 
  • Freezer Friendly? Yes please! Freeze once completely cool, thaw overnight in the fridge and gently rewarm with a splash of milk, lidded and on your lowest heat setting.

Flavor packed and texture rich with sneaky veggies, Stovetop Pumpkin Mac and Cheese with Kale comes together quick and is freezer friendly. The crispy shallots are optional, but recommended! | This recipe is vegetarian and easily gluten free.
*See blog post above for more tips! 

Ingredients

For the Shallots (optional but recommended!):

  • 3/4 cups (155 grams) Extra Virgin Olive Oil
  • 1 1/2 cups (150 grams) Thinly Sliced Shallots about one large
  • Fine Sea Salt for sprinkling

For the Mac and Cheese

  • 8 ounces (230 grams) Pasta Shells or Elbows gluten free pasta if needed.
  • 1/2 pound (215 grams) Kale any variety, stem ends removed, about one bunch
  • 1 cup (225 grams) Homemade Cashew Milk (unsweetened) or heavy (whole) cream
  • 1 cup (245 grams) Pumpkin Puree homemade or from a can
  • 1 tablespoon Garlic fresh, finely chopped
  • 1 tablespoon Sage or Thyme fresh, finely chopped
  • 8 ounces (225 grams) Sharp Cheddar Cheese not pre shredded. I like raw white sharp
  • 1 teaspoon Fine Sea Salt plus more to taste
  • 5-6 dashes Tabasco OR 2 Tbs Vegetarian Worcestershire to taste

Instructions

For the Crispy Shallots:

  • In a shallow sauce pot, add the olive oil. Heat on medium to medium high until the oil shimmers. To see if the oil is ready, toss in a slice of shallot. If it starts to fry, the oil is ready. Toss the shallots in the oil and fry for about 7-9 minutes stirring occasionally with a fork to loosen the shallots. Turn the heat to medium low, keep frying and keep an eye on them. When they start to evenly turn golden brown, remove from heat.
    Drain through a fine mesh sieve, reserving that now fragrant olive oil (sooo good in salad dressings or a drizzle in soup) in a glass jar and set the shallots on a paper towel to dab off any excess oil. Sprinkle a pinch of salt over the top and set aside to cool. 
    Store in a lidded container. They are best enjoyed on the day made. 

For the Mac and Cheese:

  • In medium Dutch oven or stock pot, fill with water to 2/3 full. Add a generous pinch of salt and cook the pasta according to package directions. Two minutes before the pasta is done, using tongs, plunge the kale into the water and cook for those two last minutes. Fish out the kale using tongs, and set the kale on a plate to cool. Drain the pasta, set aside and dry out the pot with a kitchen towel.
  • In the same medium Dutch oven or stock pot, whisk together the Homemade Cashew Milk or cream, pumpkin, garlic and sage or thyme. Heat on medium-low heat until the mixture starts to bubble and steam. Remove from heat and slowly, one small handful at a time, gently whisk in the cheese. Add more just when the previous handful of cheese has melted. 
  • Once all the cheese has been added, put the pot back on the stove, turn the heat on to the lowest setting and stir until that last handful of cheese has melted in and the mixture is warmed through, about 3-4 minutes. 
  • Meanwhile, squeeze as much water as you can out of the kale, and chop it into bite size pieces. Add it to the sauce along with the salt and Tabasco or Worcestershire, stir then, gently stir in the pasta. Taste for salt and Tabasco or Worcestershire adjustment. Lid the mac and cheese and warm thorough on lowest heat for just a few minutes. 
    If the mixture seems too thick, add a splash or two of milk to loosen it up a bit.  Spoon into individual bowls and sprinkle with crispy shallots. 
  • Store in a lidded container for up to three days in the refrigerator. Rewarm on lowest heat, lidded with a splash or two of milk to loosen the mac and cheese. Freeze for up to two weeks. Thaw in the refrigerator overnight.

    This was delicious! We’ll definitely be making it again (we used a white cheddar and sage… yum!).

    We’re not big fans of kale, so for our house there was too much called for here. We’ll just cut back next time.

    Thanks for the great flavors!

    Just a note, if you’re looking for a lower-fat option, nonfat or lowfat evaporated milk would work here — it’s an emulsifier and works really well in stovetop mac n cheese dishes. The high volume of milk proteins in evaporated milk work as a stabilizer. I’ve had great success with it!

    I don’t think it gets more comfy and cozy than this! Such a dreamy meal. Also, so sad that most store-bought plant milks are mostly water. If only we subsidized nuts as much as we do dairy then maybe they would be more affordable and companies could use more of them!

    Puréed pumpkin last night so I just had to make this dish, right? Traci’s recipe and guidance was on point. The suggestion to add a little milk if the finished dish was too thick worked perfectly. I also totally recommend using Gruyere which made the dish feel more elegant when put with sage (instead of thyme). We felt this dish was so fancy we paired it with a Washington Sauvignon Blanc which I thought paired well with the dish overall. Here’s to winning fancy dinner on a Tuesday night (and having freezable leftovers to enjoy another day!)

    Mac and cheese is definitely comfort in a bowl. Those crispy shallots give it flavor and the crunch on top you would get from baking it-double duty! The kale and pumpkin make it a little less indulgent, too. Enjoy your woodland wreath…I’ll be making those all week at the arboretum where I volunteer…really puts me in the holiday spirit.
