So amazing! This was a staple at our Thanksgiving dinner but we also ate it all year round! That good!

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Prepare the cream mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the heavy whipping cream, salt, pepper, minced garlic (if using), and fresh thyme (if using). Mix until everything is well combined.
Layer the potatoes: Grease a 9×13-inch casserole dish generously to prevent sticking. Arrange the thinly sliced potatoes evenly in layers within the casserole dish.
Pour the cream mixture: Pour the cream mixture over the potato layers, making sure the cream is evenly distributed.
Bake: Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake uncovered for about 45 minutes. The potatoes should be tender, and the top should be lightly browned and bubbly.
Cool: Allow the dish to cool for a few minutes before serving.

For a complete meal: Pair scalloped potatoes with roasted chicken, beef tenderloin, or a pork roast.
Vegetarian option: Serve with baked tofu, a mushroom and spinach quiche, or roasted vegetables for a hearty meal.
On the side: Fresh, crisp garden salads or steamed vegetables complement the creamy potatoes perfectly.
