Ingredients
Scale
Potatoes and Seasoning
- 4 medium russet potatoes
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1 tablespoon fresh rosemary, chopped
Garlic Butter Mixture
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
Instructions
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C) to ensure it’s hot and ready for baking the potato stacks.
- Slice Potatoes: Peel the russet potatoes and thinly slice them evenly to create uniform layers for stacking.
- Prepare Garlic Butter: In a bowl, mix together the melted butter, minced garlic, salt, black pepper, and chopped fresh rosemary to form the flavorful garlic butter mixture.
- Grease Muffin Tin: Brush each cavity of a muffin tin generously with the garlic butter mixture to prevent sticking and add flavor.
- Stack Potato Slices: Place slices of potato into each muffin cup, layering them carefully. Brush each layer with the garlic butter mixture to infuse flavor throughout.
- Bake: Bake the potato stacks in the preheated oven for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the tops are golden and crispy.
- Serve: Carefully remove the potato stacks from the muffin tin using a small spatula or knife, and serve warm as a delicious side dish.
Notes
- Use a sharp knife or mandoline slicer for even potato slices to ensure uniform cooking.
- Adjust the amount of garlic according to your taste preference.
- Fresh rosemary adds a great flavor but dried rosemary can be substituted if needed—use about 1 teaspoon dried.
- Allow the stacks to cool slightly before removing from the tin to prevent breaking.
- Can be prepared ahead and reheated in the oven for a few minutes before serving.
