Ingredients
Scale
- 2 large sweet potatoes, peeled and very thinly sliced (about 1/8-inch thick)
- 1 cup fresh or frozen cranberries
- 1 small yellow onion, thinly sliced
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1/2 cup whole milk
- 1 cup grated Gruyère cheese, divided
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme leaves, plus more for garnish
- 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- Salt and black pepper to taste
- 2 tablespoons butter, for greasing the dish
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 2-quart baking dish with the butter.
- In a large bowl, combine the thinly sliced sweet potatoes, cranberries, onion, and garlic. Toss everything together gently.
- In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the heavy cream, milk, 1/2 cup of the Gruyère cheese, Parmesan cheese, thyme, nutmeg, salt, and pepper.
- Arrange a third of the sweet potato mixture in the bottom of the prepared baking dish. Pour a third of the cream mixture over the top. Repeat these layers two more times, ending with the cream mixture.
- Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of Gruyère cheese evenly over the top layer.
- Cover the dish with foil and bake for 40 minutes. Then, remove the foil and bake for another 20-25 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and bubbly and the sweet potatoes are tender when pierced with a knife.
- Let the gratin rest for about 10 minutes before serving. This helps the creamy sauce set perfectly. Garnish with extra fresh thyme if you like!
