Question actually. I want to make this today for a family gathering. And double the recipe. Do you think going to a 12\u201d pan is large enough?<\/p>
<\/p>
Also how far ahead of cooking can I prep the apples and potatoes? Will they discolor if I slice this morning and cook mid-afternoon??<\/p>

Has anyone baked this in a m baking dish instead of a pan?

I made this for Sunday lunch and immediately saw there needed to be more potatoes and apple to fill up my 9\" cast iron skillet. I sauted 3\/4 cup sweet onions, used 2 granny smith apples and 2 more smaller potatoes, also added more salt and thyme to make up for the extra potatoes. I should have made another 1\/2 as much of the creamy parmesan mixture. It wasn't the big hit I thought it would be. The apple flavor wasn't readily recognized. If I take the time to make this again I will definitely need to add more flavor, I found it too bland. If you follow this recipe as is, you definitely need to use no bigger than a 8\" pan. <\/p>","reviewRating":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Rating","ratingValue":3,"worstRating":1,"bestRating":5}},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Review","datePublished":"2020-12-18","author":{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"Person","name":"GreenBucket"},"reviewBody":"Such a great twist to typical scalloped potatoes!
