Creamy scalloped potatoes are a classic for a reason, and this version keeps things simple without cutting corners. Made with Yukon Gold potatoes, heavy cream, whole milk, and nutty Gruyère cheese, the potatoes are simmered first so they soak up all that rich flavor and bake quickly. You can prep the whole dish ahead of time, then slide it into the oven for just 30 minutes, making it an easy, stress-free side for holidays, dinner parties, or anytime you need a dependable comfort food.
