# What You'll Need:

→ Potatoes

01 - 3 pounds of sweet potatoes, peeled and sliced thin into 1/8-inch circles

→ Aromatics

02 - 2 red onions, medium size, sliced thin
03 - 1/2 tablespoon of fresh rosemary, chopped roughly

→ Cheeses

04 - 8 ounces of asiago cheese, shredded
05 - 8 ounces of smoked gouda, shredded

→ Seasonings

06 - 2 teaspoons of garlic powder
07 - 1/4 teaspoon of ground sage
08 - 1/4 teaspoon of salt
09 - 1 teaspoon of smoked paprika
10 - 1/4 teaspoon of freshly cracked black pepper

→ Dairy & Thickeners

11 - 4 tablespoons of melted butter
12 - 2 cups of whole milk
13 - 1/4 cup cornstarch
14 - 1/2 cup heavy cream
15 - 1 cup sour cream

# Directions:

01 - Set your oven to heat up to 375°F (190°C).
02 - Coat the inside of a big ceramic baking dish (around 10 × 14 inches) well with some cooking spray.
03 - In a big bowl, combine sliced rosemary, shredded asiago, shredded smoked gouda, pepper, paprika, sage, garlic powder, and salt. Put aside once done.
04 - Lay down one single layer of sweet potato slices in your prepared baking dish.
05 - Spread a layer of onion slices on top of the potatoes.
06 - Evenly scatter half of the cheese and spice blend over the onions.
07 - Place another layer of sweet potato slices, add more onions, and finish with one more layer of potatoes on top.
08 - In a large bowl, whisk together sour cream, milk, heavy cream, butter, and cornstarch until smooth with no lumps.
09 - Carefully pour the creamy mixture all over the potato layers so it’s evenly distributed.
10 - Sprinkle the other half of your cheese mixture over the top layer of potatoes.
11 - Put on the middle rack and bake (uncovered) for anywhere between 1 hour and 15–30 minutes. It’s ready when the cheese is bubbly and golden, and the potatoes are tender.
12 - Let it sit and cool for at least 15 minutes before cutting into it. This helps everything set up and cool to a good eating temperature.

# Notes:

01 - The natural sweetness of sweet potatoes paired with smoky cheese and herb flavors makes this comforting dish unforgettable.
02 - For evenly sliced sweet potatoes, try using a mandoline slicer to make things easier.
