With only 5 ingredients, these Scalloped Garlic Potatoes are super easy to make, and they are delicious to eat too.

Everyone loves a good scalloped potato recipe! These scalloped garlic potatoes are a little different than a traditional scalloped potato recipe because they don’t have any cheese in them! They’re simply baked in a creamy garlic sauce. I think they’re wonderful if you don’t like a super heavy recipe.
Ingredients needed:
- Russet potatoes
- salt
- garlic
- milk
- heavy whipping cream

From a RecipeGirl reader:
Made these potatoes as well as the green beans with caramelized shallots for Easter and they were amazing.
I also made the lemon truffle cake, so pretty and tasted delicious! Thanks for the great recipes!

Leftovers are good with breakfast as a side to eggs! You can easily double the recipe if you’re serving more people. Use a large 9×13 inch pan instead. Enjoy!
