How to Make Swiss Potato Casserole

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Spray a 13x9-inch glass baking dish with nonstick cooking spray.
  3. In the prepared baking dish, combine 3 pounds peeled and thinly sliced potatoes and 2 cups shredded Swiss cheese.
  4. In a large saucepan, melt 1/4 cup butter over medium heat.
  5. Whisk in 1/4 cup all-purpose flour until smooth.
  6. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is bubbly and slightly thickened (about 1 minute).
  7. Gradually whisk in 2 cups milk, stirring constantly to prevent lumps.
  8. Reduce heat to low. Stir in 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon onion powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg.
  9. Bring the sauce to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently, until it thickens slightly (about 2-3 minutes).
  10. Pour the cheese sauce evenly over the potato mixture in the baking dish, ensuring all potatoes are coated.
  11. Bake for 55-65 minutes, or until the casserole is golden brown and the sauce is set. Let stand for 10 minutes before serving.
