Sweet cranberries and salty Stilton cheese are an easy way to level up your classic scalloped potato recipe with extra flavor and color.

Notes: Keep sliced potatoes in water until you’re ready to use them.

  • Place your baking dish on a cookie sheet to catch any spills and make cleaning easy!
  • If making traditional non-stacked scalloped potatoes, reduce the milk by 1/2 cup and increase the cheese to 1/2 cup, layering half the cheese halfway through your layers.
