Best Scalloped Potatoes Recipe

I think these are the best scalloped potatoes I have made.

It is so easy to make the simple sauce and so much better than when I used to just layer the flour, milk and butter and see it bubble up and boil over!

This scalloped potato recipe goes with so much, from ham, to meat loaf to just about anything you want to pair it with.

Scalloped Potato Recipe:

Preheat oven to 325ºF.

Heat 3 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over low heat until melted. Blend in flour, salt and pepper. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is smooth and bubbly. Gradually stir in milk, 1/2 cup at a time. Heat to boiling. Boil and stir 1 minute.

Arrange potatoes in greased 2 quart casserole in 3 layers, topping each layer with part of the chopped onions and 1/3 of the sauce. Dot the top with the remaining 1 tablespoon of butter, broken into little pieces.

Cover and bake until potatoes are tender, about 60-70 minutes. Let stand 5 to 10 minute before serving.
