Brown Butter Pasta

I recently partnered up with Wolf Appliances to shoot a video with my sister Gabby and sister-in-law Liz. Wolf has a great campaign about reclaiming the kitchen and inspiring busy families to enjoy cooking together. We’re sharing our favorite family recipes: like this burnt butter pasta (which literally takes 15 minutes to throw together.) It’s a staple in our house. Make sure you see the video and the recipe below!

Brown Butter Pasta | Oh Happy Day!

It’s our Aunt Robin’s recipe, and we love it! This is a ridiculously fast and easy recipe, but it feels like a modern, fresh take on mac & cheese. And as you can guess, kids adore it! A perfect meal option for a busy night, with ingredients that everyone has on hand — pasta, parmesan and butter.

Brown Butter Pasta

  • 1/2 stick butter
  • 1 lb. pasta
  • 1 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • (Optional): chopped greens

Bring a pot of water to boil. Add pasta and cook al dente. Drain pasta.

Place your butter in a pan and brown. Once the color turns a golden caramel color, and you can smell a nutty scent, add salt and pepper, cooked pasta, parmesan cheese and chopped greens.

Serve and enjoy!

    Love this recipe.
    I do something similar with mizithra cheese instead of parmesan.
    Can’t beat browned butter
