Air Fryer Scalloped Potatoes
The Kitchen Bucket List wants you to have a cheesy-crunchy-creamy potato side dish tonight. It is our fun twist to traditional scallop potatoes. It makes the perfect side dish to serve on a comfort food night.
Equipment
- Air Fryer
- Cake pan (Make sure it fits in the air fryer, I used a 7-inch pan for my basket style air fryer.)
Ingredients
- 1 ½ pounds yellow/gold potatoes (Unpeeled, cleaned and thinly sliced)
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream
- 1 tablespoon Italian seasoning
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- ¼ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella
- ½ cup Panko (Or breadcrumbs)
Instructions
- Preheat the air fryer to 360 degrees F. for 4 minutes. Oil or butter a baking dish (I used a 7-inch cake pan). Set aside.
- Clean the potatoes and thinly slice them. Each slice should be approximately an ⅛ inch thick.
- Place the potatoes in the prepared cake pan, and lay them flat and as evenly as possible.
- Cook the potatoes in the preheated air fryer at 360 degrees F. for 13 - 15 minutes or until they are tender when you poke them with a fork.*NOTE* the time may vary depending on the thickness of the potatoes and how many you have.
- While the potatoes are cooking, whisk the cream with the Italian seasoning, salt, garlic powder, onion powder, and ground pepper. Whisk until the ingredients are combined.
- Once the potatoes are cooked, pour the seasoned cream mixture over the potatoes and air fry at 300 degrees F. for an additional 19 minutes.
- Sprinkle the cheese and Panko, then air fry for 2 - 3 minutes at 360 degrees F. until nicely golden to your liking.
- Serve and Enjoy!
Notes
- Crunchy-Cheesy Topping: I know it is not the traditional topping but I just wanted to add it. It has become a favorite here at the house. You can always omit it if you want more traditional scallop potatoes. But you should give it a go at least once.
- Yellow potatoes can be labeled at the grocery store as gold potatoes.
- Time in this recipe is a guide as many factors may impact it, type of potatoes, type of air fryer, pan, and how thick the potato slices are.
