Notes
- Make-Ahead: These are best eaten right away. However, you can make them 1 day ahead of time by following my instructions above.
- How to Store: I like to store these in the refrigerator covered in plastic for up to 4 days. I also cover and freeze them for up to 2 months. Simply thaw them for 1 day in the refrigerator before reheating them.
- How to Reheat: To reheat them, add your desired portion to a pan, cover with foil, and bake in the oven at 375° for 20-25 minutes or until hot. In addition, you can simply add them to the microwave and heat them until hot.
- You can also feel free to use Yukon potatoes as well.
- When it’s done cooking in the oven, The outside edges of the pan should be bubbling.
- You can substitute half and half for the heavy cream.
- These potatoes au gratin are meant to feed many people, so feel free to cut the recipe in half.
- If you do not have a deep 13x9 casserole dish, please use two standard-size 13x9 dishes.
