- 4 medium Russet potatoes
- 1/2 cup butter melted
- 1 cloves garlic minced
- 1/2 cup Parmesan cheese finely grated
- 1/2 cup Cheddar or Gruyere cheese finely grated
- 1 teaspoon fresh rosemary chopped
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme chopped
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Lightly grease a 12-cup muffin tin.
Using a mandolin or a very sharp knife, cut the potatoes into 1/8” slices.
In a large bowl, stir together the butter, garlic, cheeses, rosemary, thyme, salt and pepper. Add in the potatoes and toss well to coat.
Layer the potato slices in each well of the muffin tin all the way to the top.
Place the muffin tin on a baking sheet and cover with tinfoil.
Bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and continue cooking for another 20-25 minutes. The potatoes should be tender and golden.
Slide a paring knife around the outside of each stack to release it then use the knife to lift the stack out.
Garnish with flake salt and some fresh thyme. Serve immediately.
- Consistently thin slices cook evenly and stack neatly, creating that signature layered look.
- Stack the potato slices up above the top of the cupcake tin. The stacks will shrink a little as they cook, so you want to make sure the stack them high.
- Make sure each layer gets coated with the magic butter sauce for maximum flavor and a melt-in-your-mouth texture.
