Ingredients
  

  • 3 potatoes thinly sliced
  • 1 cup shredded cheese cheddar or parmesan
  • 2 tbsp butter melted
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Equipment

  • Muffin tin
  • Mandoline slicer
  • Mixing bowl
  • Pastry brush

Method
 

Prep
  1. Preheat oven to 375°F
  2. Thinly slice potatoes (consistent thickness = even cooking)
Instructions
  1. Grease a muffin tin
  2. Stack potato slices into each cup
  3. Brush with melted butter
  4. Sprinkle seasoning and cheese between layers
  5. Bake for 35–40 minutes until crispy and golden
  6. Let cool slightly, then remove

Notes

  • The edges get crispy = best part
  • Use parmesan for extra crunch and flavor
  • Add herbs (thyme, rosemary) for upgrade
  • Don’t overstack too tightly or centers stay undercooked
 

Quick Tip

Use a mandoline slicer for super thin, even slices (this makes a BIG difference).
