1.In a medium saucepan, melt two tablespoons of butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until the mixture bubbles and a pale roux is formed, 2 to 3 minutes.

Remove from heat. 2.Stir the salt, freshly ground black pepper, cayenne and nutmeg into the cheese sauce. Add the cooked shells and stir to coat. Pour macaroni and cheese into a buttered 9x12 baking pan/dish. 3.Put the Rack in Position 1. Select Bake with temperature set to 350°F for 10 minutes. When the AirFryer is preheated, set the baking dish onto the rack. Meanwhile, toss the fresh breadcrumbs with the remaining two tablespoons of melted butter. 4.When the time expires, carefully remove the pan and top the macaroni and cheese with an even layer the buttery breadcrumbs. Bake for an additional 8 to 10 minutes until bubbly and golden brown. 5.Enjoy immediately.
