My dear sister passed down this creamy 4 ingredient bake and it is pure comforting perfection for the season.

This Oven-Baked Cabbage and Potato Gratin layers thinly sliced potatoes and tender ribbons of cabbage in a seasoned heavy cream and melted cheese bake. Slow-cooked under foil before browning to a bubbly, golden finish, this comforting vegetable casserole delivers rich, velvety layers with every bite.

Oven-Baked 4-Ingredient Cabbage and Potato Gratin

Ingredients:

Step-By-Step Directions:

1. Preheat and prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 2 to 2 1/2-quart casserole dish with soft butter or oil.

2. Season cream: In a measuring cup or small bowl, whisk the heavy cream together with the kosher salt and black pepper until combined.

3. Layer casserole: Place an overlapping layer of potato slices on the bottom of the dish, followed by a handful of shredded cabbage. Drizzle with a little seasoned cream and a sprinkle of shredded cheese.

4. Repeat layering: Continue repeating the layers of potatoes, cabbage, cream, and cheese, finishing with a final layer of potatoes on top. Pour any remaining cream evenly over the dish.

5. Add top cheese layer: Scatter the rest of the shredded cheese evenly over the top layer of potatoes, making sure to reach the edges.

6. Bake covered: Loosely cover the casserole dish with aluminum foil (tenting slightly to avoid sticking to the cheese). Place on a baking sheet and bake for 40 minutes until the vegetables begin to soften.

7. Uncover and brown: Carefully remove the foil and bake uncovered for another 20 to 30 minutes, until the top is deeply golden brown, the cream is bubbling, and the potatoes are fork-tender throughout. Rest for 10 minutes before serving warm.
