These creamy morsels of buttery goodness will make you say “Funeral potatoes? Pshhhhh. THIS IS LIFE!”. Potato slices marinated in an herb cream, layered with cheese and melted onions, then baked to perfection. This is THE scalloped potatoes recipe you’ll want on hand year round, but especially during the holiday season.

Scalloped Potatoes that are so creamy and good and delicious, yet not heavy! we scraped the dish clean!

Best ever Scalloped Potatoes recipe:

Growing up I absolutely LOVED scalloped potatoes! My mom would make them for parties, births, funerals, and holidays. They were my favorite.

On my first grocery trip when I moved out and started college, I bought no less than 18 boxes of scalloped potatoes. Boxes y’all. 18.  In my defense; they were on sale!, so, you know, 18… Go ahead, insert rolling of eyes and shaking of head here. For reals. They were terrible!

Ha! Turns out my mom makes things way better than a box company.

Now that I’m grown up and all that jazz, at my house Scalloped Potatoes are homemade.  Moreover, I’ve added my own twist. AND my twist ended up being delicious. In fact, these babies are the bomb y’all! SOOO DARN GOOD.

How to make AMAZING Scalloped Potatoes

  1. Create a marination (just made that awesome word up!) bowl filled with your herb cream mixture.
  2. Using a mandolin slicer for uniformity, cut all your potatoes into slices.  Add them to the herb-cream marinade as you go.
  3. In a Casserole Dish, layer marinated potato slices, melted onions (recipe for BEST EVER melted onions can be found HERE), and just a bit of butter and cheese.
  4. When your entire dish is filled with layers; Pour what’s left of your herb cream over the potatoes and top with cheese.
  5. Bake until tender and then ENJOY!

How to make good potatoes:

*Letting the potato slices marinate in the cream while you prep the other parts of the dish, allows them to soak in some of it’s flavor and also keeps them from oxidizing. Seasoning and adding little bits of butter, cheese and herbs, between every couple layers; guarantees deliciousness in every single bite.

In short, these are so much more than your average funeral potatoes. With only a couple minutes extra work, you take this classic dish from good to INCREDIBLE! Worth it.

    Just came across this. Looks amazing! Love the melted onions! Have you tried this with other cheeses? Wondering how adding Swiss and/or Gruyere would be?

    Putting all of this on my grocery list right now! I absolutely love scallop potatoes, not that I need to be eating them haha. But I have always had them out of the box. I have wanted to make some for so long just haven't been able to find a recipe that I am really willing to try. This one looks stunning! And I am eager to try it pronto!
