Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Ensure your oven is properly calibrated for consistent baking. Spray an 8x8-inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray, or lightly grease with butter. Set aside. (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

In a large bowl, gently combine the diced potatoes, shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, diced onion, mayonnaise, and minced garlic. Season generously with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper. Mix until all ingredients are evenly distributed, ensuring the potatoes are well-coated in the creamy mixture. (10 minutes)

03

Step
2 mins

Transfer the potato mixture to the prepared baking dish, spreading it into an even layer. Cover the dish with aluminum foil to prevent excessive browning and to help the potatoes steam and become tender. (5 minutes)

04

Step
1 hrs 30 mins

Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour. Remove the aluminum foil and continue baking until the potatoes are fork-tender and the top is golden brown and bubbly, approximately 30 more minutes. (90 minutes)

05

Step
7 mins

Remove the dish from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. Garnish with freshly chopped green onions for a burst of freshness and color. Serve hot, and prepare to be transported to potato paradise! (10 minutes)

For an extra layer of flavor, consider adding a pinch of smoked paprika or a dash of hot sauce to the potato mixture.
Feel free to substitute the cheddar cheese with your favorite cheese, such as Gruyere, Monterey Jack, or Pepper Jack for a spicier kick.
To prevent the potatoes from sticking to the bottom of the dish, you can line the baking dish with parchment paper before adding the potato mixture.
Leftovers can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Reheat in the oven or microwave until warmed through.
