4. Pour cream mixture evenly over the top and sprinkle with 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese. Bake uncovered at 400˚F for 40-45 minutes, or until potatoes are soft and easily pierced with a fork. Bake time may vary depending on how thick you sliced the potatoes. Remove from oven and let rest at least 10 minutes then garnish with chives if desired and serve.

    I’m mKing this for dinner tonight but I’ve made several of your recipes and I enjoy your videos. Oh and by the way, I sent the link to your website to one of the former First Ladies of Ukraine and she was thrilled ! Very nice woman I met in person. I met her during our Ukrainian adoption process.

    Outstanding flavor! We made it with dairy free almond milk and cheese. I just used a hefty tablespoon of corn starch in the cold almond milk to thicken it like the cream. I topped it with grape tomatoes for color.

    May I leave out the heavy cream and just use parmesan cheese?

      Hi Mary, I haven’t tested that to advise. If you do an experiment, we’d be interested to know how it turns out.

    My husband loves zucchini decided to give this recipe a try. Super fun to put together even the husband helped. Had cream on grocery list grabbed half & half but used anyway, yes dish was watery but still great. Cut zucchini thick to compensate the half & half mistake. Definitely a keeper. Thanks Natasha
