Grandma’s Recipes
Grandma’s always have the best recipes, no one makes comfort food like Grandma. Scalloped potatoes are one of my favorite comfort foods. I avoid them at gatherings because they are made with flour and that tasty cracker crumble is full of wheat, but no more.
These gluten free scalloped potatoes are so simple to make. Slice the potatoes with a food processor for the quickest way, or you can slice with a knife. The food processor is really fast and makes even slices. I always leave the skin on. For scalloped potatoes, I like the yellow potatoes. The skin is so thin you barely notice it, plus your retaining nutrients.

The Cracker Crust
Of course, what really makes these the best is the cracker crumb topping. Schar’s

Gluten Free Scalloped Potatoes with Ham
These gluten free scalloped potatoes with ham are a perfect use of that leftover Easter ham, of course they can be made without it, but it takes these from side dish to main dish. Speaking of side dishes- this Simple Spring Mix Salad from Foolproof Living will make an excellent side!

April 14, 2023 at 3:56 pmThis is the 2nd time I made this for a crowd. I doubled the recipe and put it in a 9 x12 pan plus a bread pan. People raved about and wanted the recipe. I added crushed onion to the roux and that was better than the 1st time I made it without. Lots and lots of flavors going on. Thank you for the recipe!

May 1, 2020 at 8:01 pmThis recipe is absolutely wonderful! I haven’t enjoyed this dish in many years and it was a bright spot in the day to serve it for dinner. The addition of nutmeg is wonderful and so is the Italian seasoning in the cracker crust. The recipe is delicious just as written. Thank you!
