Notes

Any small type of potato will work for this recipe. Make sure that they are smaller than two inches and cut in half. For best results though, stick with creamer potatoes.
To make this recipe dairy-free, use 3 tablespoons of olive oil instead.
This recipe was originally written to bake in a casserole dish. However, depending on the size of the casserole dish, the potatoes were not fully cooked for some readers in the time listed. In this newer version, the potatoes cook perfectly in the time listed and get a little browned on the bottoms too, which is a nice addition.
