“This is similar to regular scalloped potatoes but uses sweet potatoes instead. Went over great with Christmas dinner as an unusual substitute.” - by Jill H

1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
salt and ground black pepper to taste
10 sweet potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish.
Combine cream, milk, nutmeg, cinnamon, salt, and black pepper in a large saucepan over medium heat. Add sweet potatoes and simmer until sauce is thickened and sweet potatoes are almost tender, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer mixture to the prepared baking dish.
Combine panko bread crumbs, Cheddar cheese, and butter in a bowl; sprinkle topping over sweet potato mixture.
Bake in the preheated oven until potatoes are tender and cheese topping is browned and bubbling, 35 to 45 minutes.

"I loved this recipe! I was house-sitting so I only had ingredients that I could find. I used fat free half-n-half instead of milk and whipping cream, crushed ritz crackers instead of panko, shredded ..." See moreparmesean cheese instead of cheddar, and didn't add pepper or cinnamon. It was still wonderful, but will add cinnamon next time."

"We had this tonight as a side dish to a beautiful rack of lamb and, honestly, this was a huge disappointment. I scaled this down using the "change servings" feature on this site. Followed the recip..." See moree to the letter, except for using half-and-half instead of whipping cream. There was not enough liquid to even finish cooking the potatoes in the oven. I ended up adding more half-and-half, more milk, and even more cinnamon and nutmeg, but it still didn't have a lot of flavor. Sorry for the bad review, Jill H, but this just didn't measure up to an au gratin dish in my opinion. Not sure what went wrong, but I won't be making this again."
