Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 6 medium-sized Russet potatoes
- 2 cups Sharp cheddar cheese
- 1 cup Heavy cream
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Onion powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
- 1 for greasing Cooking spray
Instructions
Prepare the crock pot by greasing it with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Peel the russet potatoes and slice them into thin, even slices. Aim for slices about 1/8-inch thick for even cooking.
In a small saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and mix in the heavy cream. Stir until well combined. Remove from heat.
Layer one-third of the sliced potatoes on the bottom of the crock pot.
Sprinkle one-third of the cheddar cheese over the potato layer.
Pour one-third of the butter and cream mixture over the cheese layer.
Sprinkle a pinch of garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper evenly over the layer.
Repeat the layering process two more times, finishing with a top layer of cheese.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on the low setting for 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and fully cooked.
Once done, turn off the crock pot and let the dish sit with the lid on for 10 minutes to allow the cheese to settle.
Carefully scoop out the potato slices and serve. Optionally, garnish with freshly chopped parsley for added color and flavor.
