- 2 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, peeled
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 4 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh chives
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- Optional: 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- Preheat your oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a 12-cup muffin tin well.
- Slice the potatoes very thinly, about 1/16-inch thick. A mandoline slicer is recommended for uniform thickness.
- In a medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter, minced garlic, parsley, chives, thyme, salt, and pepper.
- Add the potato slices to the bowl with the butter mixture. Toss gently to coat each slice evenly.
- If using, stir in the Parmesan cheese.
- Press a bundle of potato slices tightly into each muffin cup, layering them in a circular pattern to create a stack.
- Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the edges are golden brown and crispy.
- Let the potato stacks cool in the muffin tin for 5-10 minutes before carefully removing them.
Notes
- For make-ahead, you can assemble the stacks and refrigerate them for up to 24 hours before baking. Add a few extra minutes to the baking time.
- To hold warm, you can keep the baked stacks in a turned-off oven with the door slightly ajar for up to 30 minutes.
- Ensure your potato slices are very thin for the best crispy texture.
