Creamy Pour-Over Potatoes 🥔🧀
This simple recipe uses a rich creamy sauce poured over potatoes before baking. The potatoes soak up the flavor and become soft, cheesy, and comforting.
Ingredients
4–5 medium potatoes (peeled and sliced thin)
1 cup heavy cream (or cooking cream)
½ cup cream cheese (softened)
1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 tbsp butter
Salt and black pepper to taste
Optional: chopped parsley or green onions for garnish
Instructions
Preheat oven to 180°C / 350°F.
Prepare potatoes: Peel and slice the potatoes thinly and place them in a greased baking dish.
Make the creamy pour-over:
In a small saucepan, melt butter over medium heat.
Add garlic and cook for about 30 seconds.
Stir in heavy cream and cream cheese until smooth and creamy.
Season with salt and pepper.
Pour the sauce evenly over the potatoes.
Add cheese on top.
Bake for 35–45 minutes, until potatoes are tender and the top is golden and bubbly.
Garnish with parsley or green onions and serve warm.
Tips
Add bacon bits or cooked chicken for a heartier dish.
For extra flavor, sprinkle paprika or Italian herbs before baking.
Slice potatoes thin so they cook evenly.
✅ Result: Soft potatoes covered in a rich, creamy sauce with a cheesy golden top.
