Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Cook the macaroni in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente, about 8 minutes. Drain and set aside.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the flour and stir to create a roux, cooking for about 1 minute.
Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring there are no lumps. Continue to cook and stir until the sauce thickens, about 5 minutes.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese until it is completely melted and the sauce is smooth.
Season the cheese sauce with salt and pepper, then combine it with the cooked macaroni, ensuring the pasta is well coated.
Transfer the macaroni and cheese mixture to a greased baking dish.
In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with olive oil, then sprinkle the mixture evenly over the macaroni and cheese.
Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and the breadcrumbs are golden brown.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before serving.
