Instant Pot Scalloped Potatoes (au Gratin)
Make quick and easy pressure cooker scalloped potatoes with cream and sour cream to serve with a roast or on your holiday table.
Equipment
Ingredients
- 3 lb Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and cut into ¼" slices
- 1 teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 cup chicken broth
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup sour cream
- 2 cups cup cheddar cheese shredded from a block
- ½ cup parmesan cheese shredded
- 2 teaspoon garlic cloves minced
Instructions
- Butter or grease a baking dish and set it aside for later.
- Place the sliced potatoes into the Instant Pot with 1 cup of chicken broth and cook Manual High for 1 minute (some units call this Pressure Cook). Do a Quick Release of the pressure once the potatoes are done.
- Turn on the oven broiler with the oven rack 4" from the heat source.
- With a slotted spoon remove the potatoes from the pot and put them into the baking dish. Leave any remaining chicken broth in the Instant Pot (we had barely any left, most absorbed into the potatoes.)
- Turn the Instant Pot to Saute. Add the sea salt, ground black pepper, minced garlic, 1 cup of the shredded sharp cheddar, ¼ cup of the parmesan cheese, the heavy whipping cream, and the sour cream to the pot.
- Stir the cheese sauce in the pot until the cheese is melted and the mixture is warm.
- Pour the cheese sauce over the top of the potatoes in the baking dish.
- Add the remaining cheese to the top of the dish.
- Broil the scalloped potatoes the oven for 3-4+ minutes or until the cheese is starting to brown and the mixture is bubbling. Serve hot and enjoy!

Notes
- Using a mandoline makes it quicker and easier to get perfectly cut ¼" potato slices. We cut ours by hand with one person peeling while the other sliced. A great task to get help from an older child!
- Feel free to substitute chicken broth for vegetable broth to make it a vegetarian dish.
- We used a 7x11 sized baking dish, any low ovenproof dish will work as long as it will hold the scalloped potatoes casserole.
- To make this a main dish casserole, feel free to add ham or pre-cooked bacon to taste.
