Crispy Potato Stacks Easy And Fail Proof Recipe

What Is A Potato Stack

Potato stacks are roasted potatoes stacked up vertically, usually in a muffin tin. The potatoes are sliced thinly, arranged and stacked one over another to form a stack. This Crispy Potato Stacks recipe is absolutely delicious, rivaling the crispy leaf potatoes recipe, except that they come in individual stacks, crispy tops and bottoms, and is probably my new favorite side dish now. After baking and roasting in the oven, every layer of the potato stack has golden brown and crispy edges and bottoms. They are basically the best homemade potato chips baked in a muffin pan!

Ingredients

Yukon Gold Potatoes Melted Butter Salt Parsley Olive Oil Black Pepper Rosemary

How To Make Crispy Potato Stacks

Potato stacks are very easy to make at home with very simple ingredients. The basic steps are:

Tips On How To Cook Potato Stacks

I am sure you ask “Do I need a mandolin slicer?” The answer is no. Here are my tips and techniques:

Use Yukon gold potatoes with a diameter of about 2 1/2 inches in the center. This will make sure that the sliced potatoes fit well into a standard muffin pan. Do not peel the skin of the potatoes. After roasting, the skin becomes crispy. Slice the potatoes with a shark knife evenly. This will make sure that the potatoes cook evenly. You don’t need a mandolin slicer, unless you have a blade that slice to 1/16-inch in thickness.

What Herbs Do I Need

For herbed potato stacks, I used rosemary and Italian parsley, infusing every slice of the potato with earthy and herb aromas. This recipe is a winner and yields the most delicious potatoes you’ll ever make in your kitchen. They have the crispiest tops and bottoms, buttery and very tasty. Try my recipe and you will love it.
