French Onion Dip Potato Bake (French Onion Dip Potato Bake)
Bring the comfort of classic French onion soup to your dinner table in a cheesy, crispy potato bake that will have everyone begging for seconds!
Preheat your oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit (190 degrees Celsius).
Wash and peel the potatoes, then slice them into thin rounds. Aim for about 1/8-inch thickness to ensure they cook evenly.
In a large bowl, combine the sour cream, cream cheese, and French onion dip. Mix until smooth and creamy.
Add the sliced potatoes to the bowl, and gently fold them in until they are well coated with the creamy mixture.
In an oven-safe baking dish, drizzle the olive oil. Add the coated potatoes carefully, spreading them out evenly.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over the top of the potato mixture.
Cover the dish with aluminum foil, and bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.
After 30 minutes, remove the foil and sprinkle the cheddar cheese evenly over the top.
Continue baking for an additional 15 minutes, or until the cheese is bubbly and golden brown.
While baking, finely chop the green onions for garnish.
Once cooked, remove from the oven, let it cool for a few minutes, and then sprinkle green onions on top before serving.
