These Stacked Golden Potato Bites are a deliciously crispy, cheesy, and herby snack or side dish. The unique stacking method ensures that the potatoes cook evenly while creating delightful layers of flavor. Perfect for a special occasion or just to make your meals more fun! Here’s how to make these crispy, golden potato stacks:
Ingredients:
3 teaspoons of butter
2 teaspoons of Parmesan
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon thyme leaves
Salt (to taste)
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
8-10 golden potatoes (cut into 1/16-inch slices)
Instructions:
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This will ensure that it’s ready to bake the potato stacks as soon as you’re done assembling them.
Step 2: Butter the Muffin Tin
In a small saucepan, melt the butter. Use a pastry brush to coat the muffin tin with the melted butter to prevent the potato stacks from sticking during baking.
Step 3: Slice the Potatoes
Cut your golden potatoes into 1/16-inch thick slices. The thinner you slice them, the more crisp and tender they’ll be once baked. Be sure to keep the slices as uniform as possible for even cooking.
Step 4: Toss Potatoes with Butter and Seasonings
Once your potatoes are sliced, place them in a mixing bowl. Drizzle the melted butter over the slices, followed by the Parmesan, garlic powder, thyme, salt, and pepper. Stir everything together, making sure the potatoes are evenly coated with the buttery, herby, cheesy mixture.
Step 5: Stack the Potatoes in the Muffin Tin
Now comes the fun part: stacking! Start stacking the seasoned potato slices into each individual cup of the muffin tin. You can pack them fairly tightly to form a neat stack. Sprinkle a little extra salt and pepper on top of each stack for added flavor.
Step 6: Bake the Potato Stacks
Place the muffin pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 55-60 minutes. The potatoes should become tender in the middle while the edges crisp up beautifully. If you like them extra crispy, you can bake them for a few extra minutes.
Step 7: Cool and Garnish
Once the potato stacks are golden and crispy, remove the pan from the oven. Let the stacks cool for about 5 minutes before removing them from the muffin tin. This helps the layers stay intact.
Garnish with a sprinkle of fresh Parmesan, some fresh thyme, or even rosemary for an aromatic touch.
Enjoy!
Serve your Stacked Golden Potato Bites as a side dish with roasted meats, or enjoy them on their own as a tasty snack. The combination of melted butter, Parmesan, garlic, and thyme gives these crispy potato stacks a flavor that’s simply irresistible. Perfect for a cozy dinner or as an appetizer for guests, these potato stacks are sure to be a hit at any table.
