Make impressive, layered potato stacks baked in a muffin tin. These stacks feature crispy edges, tender centers, and a rich garlic Parmesan butter flavor, perfect as an elegant side dish or appetizer.
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit. Lightly grease a standard 12-cup muffin tin.
Thinly slice the potatoes. You need slices about 1/8-inch thick. A mandoline slicer works best for uniform thickness.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Parmesan cheese, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, salt, and white pepper. Mix this garlic herb butter well.
Take one potato slice and dip it into the butter mixture, coating both sides lightly.
Fold the coated slice in half, then fold it in half again to create a small wedge shape.
Place three of these folded slices into each muffin cup, pressing them down gently to form a small stack. The layers should stand up slightly.
Brush any remaining butter mixture over the tops of the potato stacks.
Bake for 35 to 45 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy and the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Carefully remove the stacks from the muffin tin using a small offset spatula or butter knife.
Garnish the tops with fresh chopped parsley before serving immediately.
Notes
For the crispiest edges, ensure your potato slices are very thin and that you press them firmly into the muffin cups.
If you do not have a mandoline, slice the potatoes as thinly as you can by hand.
These stacks are best served right out of the oven when they are at their crispiest.
