    Directions<\/h4>
    • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.<\/li>
    • In a medium pan, heat 1 Tbsp of butter<\/strong> or olive oil <\/strong>on medium heat until melted. Add in onions <\/strong>and season with some salt <\/strong>and pepper<\/strong>. Cook the onions until they are slightly translucent and set aside.<\/li>
    • Butter the bottom and sides of your casserole dish or large cast iron pan and layer half the sliced potatoes <\/strong>on the bottom. Place the cooked onions on top and layer with the remaining potatoes<\/strong>.<\/li>
    • In a medium sauce pan, melt 3 Tbsp of butter<\/strong> on medium heat. Whisk the butter while gradually adding 3 Tbsp of all-purpose flour<\/strong>. Continue whisking for about 1 minute until the flour is cooked.<\/li>
    • Begin to gradually add 2 cups of milk<\/strong>, about 1\/4 cup at a time, while whisking the mixture to ensure there are no clumps. Once all the milk is added, continue whisking the mixture for 3-5 minutes until it has thickened. <\/li>
    • Add in 1 \u00bd\u00a0cups\u00a0shredded Cheddar cheese<\/strong>, and season with salt, pepper, and garlic powder to taste. Mix until all is melted, about 1 minute.<\/li>
    • Pour the cheese mixture over the potatoes and cover with aluminum foil. Bake for about 1 hour or until the dish is bubbling and potatoes are tender.<\/li>
    • Remove from the oven and let cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Top with chopped chive <\/strong>and bacon bits<\/strong>, and enjoy!<\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
