These Micro-Scalloped Potatoes are a comfort food that is perfect as the weather gets colder. I had never heard of or tasted scalloped potatoes before I made this recipe and I was definitely missing out on this delicious cheesy potato combination.
One of the best things about this recipe is the convenience—it’s made entirely in the microwave! This makes it perfect for busy nights, beginner cooks, or anyone without an oven. Serve it with roasted vegetables, chicken, turkey, or fish.
You can also make it dairy-free with milk and cheese alternatives, or gluten-free by swapping in gluten-free flour. These micro-scalloped potatoes are a simple, low-effort side that’s sure to impress. I hope you give this recipe a try!
