Ingredients

• 6 large russet potatoes
• 2 cups fully cooked ham
• 2 cups cheddar cheese
• 1 large onion
• 2 cloves garlic
• 3 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 2.5 cups milk
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon paprika
• 1 as needed cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick rounds. Set aside.

Step 2

Dice the fully cooked ham into small cubes. Shred cheddar cheese and set it aside separately.

Step 3

Peel and finely dice the onion. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, add the diced onion and garlic. Cook for 2-3 minutes until softened.

Step 5

Whisk in the flour and cook for another minute, stirring constantly, to form a roux.

Step 6

Gradually whisk in the milk, ensuring no lumps form. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, until thickened (about 5 minutes).

Step 7

Stir in salt, black pepper, and paprika to season the sauce. Remove from heat and let it cool slightly.

Step 8

Spray the inside of the crock pot with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 9

Assemble the dish by layering 1/3 of the potato slices at the bottom of the crock pot. Top with 1/3 of the diced ham, followed by a layer of 1/3 of the shredded cheese.

Step 10

Pour about 1/3 of the creamy sauce over the cheese layer.

Step 11

Repeat the layering process (potatoes, ham, cheese, sauce) two more times, ending with a layer of cheese on top.

Step 12

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on low for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and the dish is bubbly.

Step 13

Once done, allow the scalloped potatoes to rest for 10 minutes before serving. Serve warm and enjoy!
