Description

These crispy, cheesy potato stacks are golden, savory, and layered to perfection. A comforting, elegant side dish that’s perfect for any occasion.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 large Russet Potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 1 ½ cups shredded Cheddar Cheese
  • ½ cup grated Parmesan Cheese
  • 4 tablespoons unsalted Butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • ½ teaspoon Black Pepper
  • 1 teaspoon chopped Fresh Thyme (optional)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, toss the thinly sliced potatoes with melted butter, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper until evenly coated.
  3. Ensure the muffin tin is well greased to prevent sticking and encourage crispiness.
  4. Layer about 6–8 potato slices into each muffin cup, brushing with butter and sprinkling cheddar cheese between layers. Finish with Parmesan and thyme on top.
  5. Cover the muffin tin loosely with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Then uncover and bake for an additional 15–20 minutes until tops are golden and crispy.
  6. Let the stacks cool for 5 minutes before carefully lifting them out with a spatula.
  7. Serve warm and enjoy the crispy, cheesy goodness!

Notes

  • Use a mandoline slicer for even, thin potato slices.
  • Silicone muffin liners make removal easy.
  • Try a cheese blend like mozzarella, Gruyère, and cheddar for extra flavor.
  • Great for meal prep — reheat in the oven or air fryer for best texture.
