Hasselback Potatoes with Cheese

Hasselback potatoes with cheese is a simple, delicious recipe. These baked potato slices are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making them a perfect side dish!

Hasselback potatoes are a great way to put a unique twist on a traditional baked potato. My family LOVES when they see these buttery & cheesy potatoes on the dinner table. This recipe will soon be a top favorite at your house! 

When I first saw a recipe for Hasselback potatoes with cheese, I thought the recipe would be difficult and time consuming to make. I wrong. Prepping the potatoes takes under 10 minutes then you pop the pan into the oven and the timer is going off within the hour. 

KITCHEN TIP: I set each potato between two knives and slice to prevent the knife from going all the way through the potato as seen below. You can also use spoons, chopsticks or a wood ladle when cutting. 

Follow my step-by-step guide to make flavorful and tender sliced baked potatoes. While the potatoes cook, I highly recommend making my Beef Tenderloin Steak Recipe or Baked Chicken Thighs recipe to pair with the cheesy potatoes! 

How to make Hasselback Potatoes:

1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees Fahrenheit.
2. Place potatoes between 2 knives and slice (this prevents the knife from going all the way through the potato). Slice horizontally into 1-centimeter sections.
3. Soak potatoes in cold water for 10 minutes (this helps the potato sections open up).
4. Place potatoes in oven safe skillet.
5. In a small microwave-safe bowl, add butter, garlic, and salt. Heat for 35 seconds or until butter is melted, stir.
6. Brush butter mixture onto potatoes.
7. Cook for 20 minutes.
8. Add parmesan cheese to potatoes.
9. Cook an additional 20 minutes.
10. Serve immediately.

Can I add toppings?

Absolutely! The possibilities are endless when it comes to Hasselback potato toppings. Make a loaded Hasselback potato bar at your house by setting up a variety of toppings on the table & letting your family pick their favorites. 

Here are a few ideas to get you started:

• Bacon Bits
• Cheddar cheese
• Sour cream or Greek yogurt
• Green onions
• Rosemary 
• Feta cheese 
• Parsley or chives

Get creative with your spuds & share your favorite topping ideas! 

I hope your family enjoys their potato slices as much as mine. Use the Hasselback cutting method on zucchini, squash, apples or pears to make other delicious recipes. I have a feeling that Hasselback Sweet Potatoes will soon appear on my dinner table 🙂
