Scalloped Sweet Potatoes are a creamy and delicious side dish made with layers of thinly sliced sweet potatoes, creamy cheese, and aromatic shallots.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 medium sweet potatoes, peeled, thinly sliced into ⅛-inch rounds (about 4 cups)
  • ¼ cup (½ stick / 57 g) unsalted butter, room temperature
  • 1 medium shallot, finely diced
  • 2 teaspoons garlic, minced
  • 1 ½ cups (357 g) heavy whipping cream
  • 1 cup (100 g) parmesan cheese, shredded
  • ½ cup (54 g) Gruyere cheese, shredded
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper
  • Chives, chopped (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Spray a 9×13-inch dish with cooking spray. Set aside.
  2. Arrange the sweet potato slices in the prepared dish, layering them so they slightly overlap.
  3. In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the shallot and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes, or until softened.
  4. Reduce heat to low. Add heavy cream, parmesan, Gruyere, salt, and pepper. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and the mixture is smooth. Remove from heat.
  5. Pour the mixture evenly over the sweet potatoes.
  6. Cover the dish tightly with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.
  7. Remove the foil and continue baking, uncovered, for an additional 20–30 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and the top is lightly golden.
  8. Remove potatoes from the oven and let rest for 5 minutes. Garnish with chopped chives before serving.

Notes

  • For a richer flavor, you can add more cheese or use different cheese varieties.
  • Let the dish cool slightly before serving for better presentation.
