Ingredients

3 pounds potatoes, thinly sliced
0.5 onion, thinly sliced
9 tablespoons all-purpose flour, divided
6 tablespoons butter, diced and divided
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 cups whole milk, or as needed

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x13 inch baking dish. Gather all the necessary ingredients for this easy scalloped potatoes recipe.
Layer one-third of the sliced potatoes in the prepared baking dish, followed by one-third of the sliced onions. Sprinkle with 3 tablespoons of flour, then dot with 2 tablespoons of cubed butter. Season generously with salt and pepper. Repeat these layers twice.
Warm the milk in a saucepan over medium-low heat until it's warm, not boiling. Pour enough warm milk over the potato layers in the baking dish, ensuring the liquid reaches the top layer of potatoes.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-60 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the creamy sauce is bubbly and golden brown. Place a baking sheet underneath to catch any spills. Let cool slightly, serve hot, and enjoy your homemade scalloped potatoes!
