Creamy cheesy scalloped potatoes made easily. This is the best scalloped potatoes recipe hands down!
I love scalloped potatoes. Like seriously, what’s there not to like? I have the best Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes recipe ever, and, of course, I will be sharing it with you all within this post. This recipe is semi homemade. We will be using fresh potatoes, of course, but we will cheat a little when it comes to making the cheese sauce.
Semi-Homemade Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes: The Perfect Side Dish!
Instead of making the sauce from scratch, we will be using canned cheddar cheese soup (Yup…just like my slow cooker mac and cheese recipe!). The cheese soup will be mixed with heavy cream, milk, butter, gruyere cheese, garlic, onions and spices. The outcome will be AMAZING!

I haven’t met a potato that I didn’t like and scalloped potatoes are at the top of my list! I am going to cook these for Thanksgiving with my ham. I love getting you recipes. Can I double everything without a problem?
Rosie says
Hi JoAnn! Absolutely! As long as you have a big enough bake dish you’re good. A 9×13 should work for a double batch! XOXO

Cassy says
Hi! Is there another type of cheese that can be substituted for the Gruyere? I can’t seem to find it anywhere. Thanks.
Rosie says
I honestly think gruyere cheese works best in this recipe. Be sure to ask the people at your local deli where the cheese is.
Cassy says
Ok will do! Thanks!
