Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Peel and thinly slice the potatoes into 1/8-inch rounds. Set aside.

In a skillet, heat the olive oil and butter over medium heat. Add the diced onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until they soften and become translucent.

In a mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, salt, black pepper, and garlic powder.
Pour half of the egg mixture over the layer of potatoes and onions in the dish.
Add another layer of the remaining potatoes, followed by the rest of the onions.
Pour the remaining egg mixture evenly over the top.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 25 minutes.
After 25 minutes, remove the foil, sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese over the top, and bake for an additional 15 minutes until the cheese is melted and golden brown.
Remove the pie from the oven, sprinkle with chopped parsley, and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving.
Slice into wedges and serve warm. Enjoy your Potato Egg Pie!
