- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- Salt and pepper to taste
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- Peel and slice the russet potatoes into thin rounds, then rinse under cold water to remove excess starch.
- In a large bowl, mix together heavy cream, melted butter, onion powder, garlic powder, salt, and pepper until well combined.
- Grease a baking dish with nonstick spray. Layer half of the potato slices at the bottom, followed by half of the creamy mixture. Repeat with the remaining potatoes and cream.

- Cover with aluminum foil and bake for 45 minutes. Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until bubbly and golden brown.
