Description

This creamy and cheesy dish is a must-try for any gathering!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 5–6 large Yukon gold potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 2 cups milk (whole or 2% for best creaminess)
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder
  • ½ teaspoon onion powder
  • ½ teaspoon dried oregano
  • ½ teaspoon dried thyme
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper
  • 2 cups Gruyere cheese, grated
  • ½ cup Parmesan cheese, grated

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) and grease a 9×13-inch baking dish lightly with unsalted butter.
  2. Slice the Yukon gold potatoes thinly and set them aside.
  3. Melt 3 tablespoons of unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat, then whisk in 3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour to create a roux.
  4. Gradually whisk in 2 cups of milk and cook until thickened, about 8–10 minutes.
  5. Season with salt, garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, thyme, and black pepper.
  6. Add Gruyere and Parmesan cheese to the sauce, stirring until melted.
  7. Layer half of the sliced potatoes in the baking dish and pour half of the cheese sauce over them; repeat with the remaining potatoes and sauce.
  8. Sprinkle the top with remaining cheese, cover with aluminum foil, and bake for 25 minutes. Remove the foil and continue baking for another 20–25 minutes until golden brown.
  9. Let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
