Melting Potatoes Recipe
Report
Melting Potatoes are my go-to dish when I want to impress dinner guests. With pillowy-soft, melt-in-your-mouth middles drenched in a lick-your-plate-worthy garlic herb butter sauce, it's no wonder these get devoured in minutes!

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- Trim ½ inch from the rounded ends of all of the potatoes and then cut in half to get two 1-inch rounds.
- In a large bowl whisk together the melted butter, oil, rosemary, thyme, garlic, salt, and black pepper. Add the potato halves and toss until they’re well coated.
- Place the coated potatoes in a 13x9-inch baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray in a single layer. Pour any remaining sauce on top of them. Bake the potatoes in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, flipping halfway through.
- Pour in the broth and return to the oven for an additional 20 to 25 minutes.
- Serve the potatoes with a drizzle of the sauce from the bottom of the dish and with a sprinkle of fresh herbs.
Notes
- Potatoes: Grab a waxy variety, like Yukon gold, for the best results.
- Ingredients: Sub in vegetable broth and vegan butter for a vegan dish.
- Prep-Ahead: You can slice the potatoes and store them in a bag in the fridge for up to 1 to 2 days ahead of time. They will stay fresher when kept in water with a bit of salt.
- Storage: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 to 5 days.
- Freezing: While you can tightly wrap these potatoes and freeze for up to 1 month, the texture won't be quite the same when thawed due to the water content in the potatoes.
- Reheating: Warm the potatoes back up in a 350℉ oven for 10 to 15 minutes. You can use the microwave, as well.
