Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
0 mins

Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.

03

Step
0 mins

Arrange a layer of potato slices in the prepared dish, slightly overlapping. (5 minutes)

04

Step
0 mins

Dot with butter slices and season generously with salt and pepper. (3 minutes)

05

Step
0 mins

Repeat layers of potatoes, butter, salt, and pepper until all potatoes are used, ending with a layer of potatoes. (10 minutes)

06

Step
45 mins

Pour half-and-half evenly over the potato mixture, ensuring the top layer is moistened. (2 minutes)

07

Step

Bake in the preheated oven until the potatoes are tender and the sauce has thickened, about 45 to 60 minutes. A knife should easily pierce the potatoes. If the top is browning too quickly, tent loosely with foil. (60 minutes)

08

Step

Let stand for 10 minutes before serving. (10 minutes)

For extra flavor, try adding a pinch of nutmeg or a clove of garlic (minced) between the layers.
Russet potatoes can be substituted, but Yukon Golds lend a creamier texture.
Ensure the potatoes are sliced thinly and evenly for uniform cooking.
For a richer flavor, heavy cream can be used instead of half-and-half.
