Air Fryer Scalloped Sweet Potatoes image

Rich, creamy, cheesy and perfectly savory, these scalloped sweet potatoes are sure to be a crowd favorite at your Thanksgiving spread. And since they're made in an air fryer, precious oven space is freed up for other holiday dishes. The trick to making them perfectly tender is using a mandoline or vegetable slicer-this ensures the potatoes are thin and cook evenly.

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h10m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

1 1/2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon fresh thyme, finely chopped
Pinch of cayenne pepper
2 cloves garlic, grated
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 pounds medium sweet potatoes (about 3), peeled
3 tablespoons freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons panko breadcrumbs
2 tablespoons chopped pecans
2 teaspoons olive oil
1 tablespoon finely chopped chives

Steps:

  • Put the cream, thyme, cayenne, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and several grinds of black pepper in a small saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring often, and cook for 1 minute; turn off the heat.
  • Thinly slice the sweet potatoes on a mandoline or vegetable slicer into about 1/8-inch-thick rounds. Arrange a third of the potato slices in a single, overlapping layer in a 7-inch nonstick cake pan (see Cook's Note). Spoon over a third of the cream mixture, then sprinkle with a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon of the Parmesan. Repeat with another third of the slices, third of the cream mixture, a pinch of salt and 1 tablespoon Parmesan. Finish with the remaining slices and cream, another pinch of salt and the remaining 1 tablespoon Parmesan.
  • Cover the cake pan tightly with foil and place in the basket of a 6-quart air fryer. Air fry at 400 degrees F until the potatoes are tender and easily pierced with a knife and the cream mixture is bubbling along the sides, about 45 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, mix the panko, pecans and olive oil in a small bowl. Remove the foil from the cake pan and sprinkle over the panko mixture. Return to the air fryer basket and air fry at 400 degrees F until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes, then top with the chopped chives.

CHEESY SHEET PAN SCALLOPED POTATOES



Cheesy Sheet Pan Scalloped Potatoes image

Those irresistible crisp, lacy edges are the best part of scalloped potatoes, so we make them in a sheet pan-increasing the surface area for maximum browning. The sauce is packed with plenty of sharp Cheddar that goes perfectly with thin slices of tender potato.

Categories     side-dish

Time 55m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 tablespoon unsalted butter, for the pan
2 cups heavy cream
1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, finely chopped
2 cloves garlic, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
2 1/4 pounds medium Yukon Gold potatoes, scrubbed (about 8)
1/3 cup grated Parmesan
8 ounces sharp Cheddar, grated

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F. Lightly grease an 18-by-13-inch sheet pan with the butter.
  • Bring the cream, thyme, garlic, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat, then turn off the stove.
  • Thinly slice the potatoes on a mandoline or vegetable slicer into rounds about 1/8 inch thick. Arrange half the potato slices in a single, overlapping layer on the sheet pan and sprinkle evenly with salt, half the Cheddar and half the Parmesan. Top with the remaining potato slices and sprinkle with salt. Drizzle the hot cream mixture evenly over the potatoes. Use a small offset spatula or butter knife to spread the garlic and thyme evenly over the potatoes.
  • Cover the pan with foil and bake until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a paring knife, about 20 minutes. Carefully remove the foil and sprinkle the potatoes with the remaining Cheddar and Parmesan. Cook uncovered, rotating the pan halfway through, until very brown and crusty on top, 15 to 20 minutes more.

Tips:

  • Use Yukon Gold potatoes for the best texture and flavor. They hold their shape well during cooking and have a slightly buttery taste.
  • Peel and slice the potatoes evenly so that they cook evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the baking dish. The potatoes need room to breathe so that they can cook evenly.
  • Bake the potatoes until they are tender. You can check this by inserting a fork into the center of a potato. If it slides in easily, the potato is done.
  • Make the cheese sauce while the potatoes are baking. This will save you time and ensure that the sauce is hot and melted when you are ready to serve the dish.
  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese. This will make a big difference in the flavor of the dish.
  • Serve the cheesy scalloped potatoes immediately. They are best when they are hot and bubbly.

Conclusion:

Cheesy scalloped potatoes is a classic side dish that is loved by people of all ages. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like your potatoes cheesy, crispy, or somewhere in between, this recipe has you covered.
