For a deeper garlic flavor, consider using roasted garlic instead of fresh. Ensure potatoes are sliced evenly for uniform cooking. If the top browns too quickly, cover the dish loosely with foil during the last 15 minutes of baking. Feel free to experiment with other cheeses such as Parmesan or Fontina for a different flavor profile.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish with cooking spray.
02
Step
3 mins
Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat. Add garlic; cook, stirring occasionally, until fragrant, about 1 minute. Stir in flour; cook, stirring constantly, for 1 minute to form a roux. Gradually whisk in heavy cream, milk, and salt until smooth and thickened.
03
Step
14 mins
Add sliced potatoes to the creamy sauce and bring to a gentle simmer. Cook, gently stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, until potatoes begin to soften, about 12 to 15 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in thyme and pepper.
04
Step
2 mins
Layer half of the potatoes in the prepared baking dish; sprinkle 1/2 cup of shredded Gruyere cheese evenly over the potatoes. Top with the remaining potatoes and spoon any remaining liquid sauce evenly over the top.
05
Step
1 mins
Top with the remaining 1/2 cup of Gruyere cheese.
06
Step
55 mins
Bake in the preheated oven until the sauce is thickened and bubbly, the top is browned in spots, and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork, about 40 to 45 minutes. Let stand for 15 minutes before serving to allow the sauce to set slightly. Garnish with additional fresh thyme before serving.
