Crispy Garlic Potato Stacks

Appetizers and Sides

30 Apr

Crispy Garlic Potato Stacks are thinly sliced potatoes infused with garlic and thyme, layered and roasted in a muffin tin. Simply delicious!

We love potatoes in this house so we eat a lot of them. They are versatile and they go with pretty much everything. We love recipes that make them just a little more interesting.

These little stacks of layered potatoes are packed full of flavor and easy to make. They seem a lot fancier than they are and while they take a little longer to make, they are absolutely worth it!

What You’ll Need to Make Crispy Garlic Potato Stacks

  • Olive Oil – We use extra virgin olive oil but any olive oil, avocado oil, vegetable oil or canola oil may be used for this recipe.

  • Fresh Garlic – 4 cloves, peeled and minced. Garlic may be chopped or smashed instead but minced gives the most garlic flavor in the shortest period of time.

  • Potatoes – 6 medium sized potatoes, about 2 pounds. Yukon Gold potatoes, red potatoes, Idaho or russet potatoes can be used. Yukon Gold and Red potatoes are less likely to fall apart.
