Ingredients
Units
Scale
- 2 lbs (900 g) medium-sized potatoes
- 1/2 cups (60 g) breadcrumbs
- 2 sprigs fresh rosemary or sage
- 1 stick (113 g) unsalted organic butter
- 1 tbsp (15 g) salt flakes
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C).
- Prepare the potatoes: Peel, wash, and slice each potato at 1/5 inch (0.5 cm) intervals, leaving the slices connected at the bottom.
- Place sliced potatoes on a baking sheet, top with a knob of butter in the sliced gaps, and bake for 25 minutes until softened and slices fan out.
- Remove potatoes from oven, and sprinkle with breadcrumbs and salt flakes. Add rosemary or sage, if desired.
- Top with another knob of butter in the gaps, and bake for an additional 25-35 minutes, until golden brown and tender. Broil for the last 5 minutes for extra crispiness.
- Remove from oven, let cool slightly, and serve.
Notes
- For perfectly even slices, use a chopstick or similar object to prevent cutting all the way through the potatoes.
- To speed up cooking time, parboil the potatoes for 10 minutes before baking.
- Leftover Hasselback potatoes can be reheated in the oven or air fryer for optimal crispness.
