This scalloped potatoes with apples dish is delicious with baked breaded pork chops, which you could cook at the same time in another cast-iron pan. We are retired, so it's just the two of us, but you could easily double the recipe to serve a crowd. —Shirley Rickis, The Villages, Florida
Ingredients
- 1 medium Granny Smith apple, peeled and thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- 1 teaspoon lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup sliced sweet onion
- 4 medium red potatoes (about 1 pound), thinly sliced
- 3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons shredded Parmesan cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/2 teaspoon minced fresh thyme or 1/4 teaspoon dried thyme
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon pepper
- 4 bacon strips, cooked and crumbled
- Chopped fresh parsley, optional
Directions
- Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, combine apple slices, sugar and lemon juice; toss to coat. Set aside. In an 8- or 9-in. cast-iron or other ovenproof skillet, heat butter over medium heat. Add onion; cook and stir until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from the heat.
- Alternately arrange potato and apple slices in a single layer in same skillet. Combine 3/4 cup Parmesan cheese with cream, thyme, salt and pepper; pour over top.
- Bake, uncovered, 50 minutes. Top with bacon and remaining 2 tablespoons Parmesan cheese. Bake until potatoes are tender and top is lightly browned, 5-10 minutes longer. Let stand 10 minutes before serving. If desired, sprinkle with parsley.
