Instructions

  6. Layer half of the sliced potatoes in the prepared dish. Pour half of the cheese sauce over the potatoes.
  7. Add the remaining potatoes and top with the rest of the cheese sauce.
  8. Sprinkle Parmesan cheese evenly over the top.
  9. Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
  10. Remove foil and bake an additional 20 minutes until the top is golden and bubbly.
  11. Let it rest for 5 minutes before serving.

Notes

For an extra crispy top, broil the scalloped potatoes for 2-3 minutes at the end of baking. Serve alongside roasted meats or a fresh green salad.
