Description
Green Bean Casserole with Potatoes: a creamy, cheesy gluten-free twist on the classic green bean casserole featuring tender potatoes.
Ingredients
Scale
- 3 cups green beans, trimmed and halved (fresh or frozen)
- 3 cups thinly sliced potatoes (Yukon Gold or red potatoes work well)
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup sour cream
- ½ cup milk
- 1½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- ½ tsp salt
- ½ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp dried thyme
- ½ tsp paprika
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- Optional topping: ½ cup gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed gluten-free crackers
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish.
- In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat. Sauté onions and garlic for 2–3 minutes until soft.
- In a large bowl, combine green beans, sliced potatoes, sautéed onions and garlic, sour cream, milk, cheese, salt, pepper, thyme, and paprika. Mix well.
- Pour mixture into the prepared dish and spread evenly.
- Cover with foil and bake for 40 minutes.
- Uncover, add optional breadcrumb topping, and bake for another 15–20 minutes until bubbly and golden on top.
- Let cool for 5–10 minutes before serving.
Notes
- You can substitute heavy cream for milk (1:1) for a richer, thicker, creamier casserole; you may need to adjust with a splash of milk if it seems too thick.
- For a gluten-free topping, use gluten-free breadcrumbs or crushed gluten-free crackers.
- Fresh or frozen green beans both work; adjust cooking time if using frozen beans to ensure tenderness.
- Classic onions topping can be replaced with crispy fried onions if available, or omitted.
- To keep it vegetarian, use a vegetarian-approved cheese option.
