Gradually add the milk, whisking continuously to avoid lumps. Add salt and stir until the sauce thickens — about 3–5 minutes. Remove from heat.
3. Assemble the Dish
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Grease a baking dish (about 9×9 inches or similar size). Arrange half of the sliced potatoes in an even layer. Sprinkle with green onions and a little black pepper.
Pour half the sauce over the potatoes.
Repeat with the remaining potatoes and pour the rest of the sauce over the top. Spread evenly with a spatula.
💡 Optional: Sprinkle shredded cheese on top for a cheesy scalloped potato variation.
4. Bake to Golden Perfection
Cover with foil and bake for 30 minutes. Remove the foil and bake for an additional 25–30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.Cheesy Breadsticks
Let it sit for 5–10 minutes before serving — this helps the sauce thicken and settle into the layers.
Serving Ideas
Scalloped potatoes pair beautifully with:
Roast chicken or turkey
Glazed ham
Grilled steak or pork chops

They’re also hearty enough to be enjoyed on their own as a comfort-filled vegetarian dish!
Storage & Reheating
To store: Keep leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
To reheat: Warm in the oven at 300°F until hot or microwave in short intervals.
They’re just as good the next day — maybe even better. 😉
