Scalloped Potatoes image

This is the way my mother always made her scalloped potatoes. Some of the measurements are estimated because my mom always just winged it, but the method is the same. The key is to heat the milk first!

Categories     Scalloped Potatoes

Time 1h15m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 pounds potatoes, thinly sliced
½ onion, thinly sliced
9 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
6 tablespoons butter, diced and divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 cups whole milk, or as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
  • Spread about 1/3 of the potato slices into the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Top with about 1/3 of the onion slices. Sprinkle 3 tablespoons flour over the potato and onion. Arrange 2 tablespoons butter atop the flour. Season the entire layer with salt and pepper. Repeat layering twice more.
  • Heat milk in a saucepan until warm. Pour enough warm milk over the mixture in the baking dish so the top of the liquid is level with the final layer of potatoes.
  • Bake in preheated oven until potatoes are tender, 45 to 60 minutes.
