Kitchen Tools:

To start, preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and cook the elbow macaroni according to the package instructions in a large stockpot. Drain and set aside. In a skillet, melt the butter over medium heat and whisk in the flour to create a roux. Slowly pour in the milk while whisking continuously until the mixture thickens.

Next, add the shredded cheddar cheese to the milk mixture and stir until melted and smooth. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Gently fold in the cooked macaroni, lump crab meat, and fresh blueberries until everything is well combined.

Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture into an oven-safe baking dish. Sprinkle breadcrumbs on top for a crispy finish. Bake in the preheated oven for 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Once cooked, remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving. The creamy, cheesy pasta mixed with the sweetness of the blueberries and the savory crab meat creates a unique and delicious flavor combination that will leave you wanting more.
