Equipment

  • 1 Mini Muffin or Muffin Tin or use Sheet pan
  • Muffin Cups or Parchment Paper

Ingredients
  

  • 1 lb Yukon Gold potatoes peeled and thinly sliced (about 1/16-inch)
  • 1 c Leeks sliced (white and green parts only)
  • 1 T butter
  • 1 t olive oil
  • 1 c Gruyère grated (shredded works too)
  • 1 T Thyme Leaves Fresh
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • Melted Butter for brushing

Instructions
 

  • Saute leeks in butter and olive oil until soft and golden. Set Aside.
  • Preheat oven to 400°F and line your muffin time with cups or a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • Create 2-inch rounds by layering potato slices with leeks, Gruyère, and thyme. Repeat to form mini stacks.
  • Brush each stack lightly with melted butter and season with salt and pepper.
  • Bake for 20–25 minutes until golden brown and tender. Broil briefly at the end if more color is needed.

Notes

*** If you want to serve this as a side dish, select larger Yukon potatoes and cut into 3 inch rounds. Use a regular muffin tin to build the stacks.
 
This illustrates the layering of the stacks. Starting from the front/bottom row of pan:
  1. I started with one potato slice, then leeks, then cheese, then 3-4 slices potato, and leeks.
  2. Next row up, add cheese
  3. Next row up, add thyme leaves
  4. Top row - add single potato slice to top the stack
  5. Brush melted butter and season well
