Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Potatoes: Thinly slice the Yukon Gold potatoes using a mandoline or a sharp knife for consistent thickness. (Prep time: 15 minutes)

02

Step

Create the Cream Sauce: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Whisk in the flour until smooth, creating a roux. Add the bay leaf and gradually whisk in the almond milk, ensuring no lumps form. Stir in the sliced garlic, nutmeg, and fresh thyme. Mix in the grated Parmesan cheese and vegetable stock. Bring the mixture to a simmer, stirring constantly, until it thickens slightly. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Remove the bay leaf. (Cook time: 10 minutes)

03

Step

Assemble the Casserole: Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a casserole dish with cooking spray or butter. Layer half of the sliced potatoes on the bottom of the dish. Pour half of the almond milk mixture evenly over the potatoes. Repeat the layering process with the remaining potatoes and almond milk mixture. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

04

Step

Bake to Golden Perfection: Spread the shredded Cheddar cheese evenly over the top layer of potatoes. Place the casserole dish in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is golden brown and bubbly. (Bake time: 45 minutes)

05

Step

Rest and Serve: Remove the casserole dish from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the sauce to thicken slightly and the flavors to meld together even further.

For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a pinch of smoked paprika to the cream sauce.
If you don't have fresh thyme, 1 teaspoon of dried thyme can be substituted.
Ensure the potatoes are sliced thinly and evenly for uniform cooking.
For a richer flavor, substitute half-and-half or heavy cream for part of the almond milk.

    I added some caramelized onions and it was even better!

    My family devoured this! It's definitely going into our regular rotation.

  • Vada Medhurst

    The mandoline is a must for getting the potatoes thin enough. I tried with a knife the first time and it didn't turn out as well.

  • Karson Mccullough

    I am allergic to dairy, so this recipe is a great substitute for the real thing!

  • Enos Padberg

    This recipe is amazing! The almond milk makes it so creamy without being too heavy.
