Cook outside the casserole box with this inventive gratin. Granny Smith apples lend seasonal flavor, while plenty of Swiss and Parmesan cheeses make this dish a savory indulgence that all your guests are sure to love. Ingredients:
3 eggs |
3 cups buttermilk |
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves |
2 teaspoons kosher salt |
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground pepper |
2 pounds baking potatoes, peeled and cut into 1/8-inch slices |
2 pounds granny smith apples (unpeeled), cut into 1/8-inch slices |
1 pound swiss cheese, shredded |
1/4 pound parmesan, grated |
Directions:
1. Heat oven to 400ยบ F. Coat a 3 1/2-quart casserole with cooking spray. In a medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, buttermilk, thyme, salt, and pepper; set aside. Arrange a layer of slightly overlapping potatoes in the casserole. Cover with a layer of apples and sprinkle with a third of each cheese. Pour a third of the egg mixture on top. Make 2 more layers. (Can be made up to 6 hours ahead.) Bake, covered, 1 hour, 15 minutes. Remove cover and bake another 15 minutes or until the potatoes are tender. Remove from oven. Serve warm or at room temperature. 2. Note: Assemble 3 casseroles to serve 30. Put one in the oven every 45 minutes so there is always a fresh gratin on the buffet. |
