Ingredients

  • 6 medium-sized Russet potatoes
  • 1 medium-sized Onion
  • 2 cups Cheddar cheese
  • 1.5 cups Heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter
  • 2 tablespoons All-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
  • 0.5 teaspoons Paprika
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 0.5 teaspoons Black pepper
  • 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
  • 1 as needed Non-stick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Peel the potatoes and slice them into thin, even rounds about 1/8-inch thick. Use a mandoline slicer for best results if you have one.

Step 2

Peel and finely dice the onion.

Step 3

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Whisk in the flour and cook for 1-2 minutes until the mixture becomes golden and bubbly.

Step 4

Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, making sure there are no lumps. Stir constantly and cook until the mixture thickens, about 2-3 minutes.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and add 1.5 cups of the cheddar cheese, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir until the cheese is fully melted and the sauce is smooth. Remove from heat.

Step 6

Lightly grease the crock pot with non-stick cooking spray.

Step 7

Layer one-third of the potato slices at the bottom of the crock pot, followed by one-third of the diced onion. Pour one-third of the cheese sauce over the layers.

Step 8

Repeat the layers two more times, finishing with a final layer of cheese sauce on top.

Step 9

Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on low heat for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.

Step 10

During the last 30 minutes of cooking, sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cup of cheddar cheese on top. Cover again and allow the cheese to melt.

Step 11

Once done, serve warm and garnish with chopped fresh parsley, if desired.
