Recipe Collection: Scalloped Potatoes

admin October 28, 2010

Written by Kate Tietje

I love scalloped potatoes.  I grew up eating them from a box, and they were “okay.”  But, once I started making them at home, they were excellent.  These days, they find their way onto my meal plan at least once every other week.  They even found their way into my first cookbook, Wholesome Real Food Favorites Cookbook.

This recipe is a wonderful winter comfort food and so simple to prepare!  They’re great with ham, chicken, or just about any meat dish.  This dish is customizable to your family’s needs, and we have made it in many different ways.  This version is gluten-free, and if you swap out butter for coconut oil and milk for coconut or oat milk, it can be dairy-free, too.

Add the bacon and Romano cheese if you want to get a little fancy with it.  You won’t be sorry. 🙂

Scalloped Potatoes

Ingredients:

  • 2 lbs. of potatoes, sliced
  • 4 tbsp. butter
  • 1/4 cup onion, minced
  • 2 tbsp. arrowroot powder
  • 2 c. raw milk
  • 1/2 tsp. salt
  • 1/4 tsp. pepper
  • 1/2 cup crumbled bacon (optional)
  • 2 – 3 tbsp. Romano cheese (optional)

Directions:

Step 1: Preheat oven to 350.

Step 2: Layer sliced potatoes in a 9×13 baking dish.

Step 3: Over medium heat, melt butter in a small saucepan.  Add onion and saute until soft and translucent.

Step 4: Add arrowroot powder, salt, pepper, and thyme (and bacon, if you’re adding it).  Stir to combine.

Step 5: Add the milk and cook over medium-high heat until the mixture starts bubbling lightly and thickens; stir frequently.

Step 6: As soon as it’s thickened, remove from heat and pour over potatoes.  Add cheese on top (if you’re using it).  Bake for 45 – 60 minutes, until potatoes are soft.

Serve alongside chicken, ham, or roasted veggies.  Get creative with it!

  2. Sounds very similar to what I make, though I often add cheese and end up with au gratin potatoes instead!
