Ingredients

• 4 large Russet potatoes
• 6 stalks Green onions
• 2 cups Cheddar cheese
• 1.5 cups Sour cream
• 4 tablespoons Butter
• 3 cloves Garlic
• 0.5 cup Milk
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 cup Breadcrumbs
• 1 tablespoon Olive oil

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9x13-inch baking dish with a little butter or olive oil.

Step 2

Peel and chop the potatoes into 1-inch cubes. Place them in a large pot of salted water and bring to a boil. Cook for 15-20 minutes or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 3

While the potatoes are boiling, finely chop the green onions. Mince the garlic cloves.

Step 4

Once the potatoes are done, drain them and transfer them to a large mixing bowl. Add the butter, sour cream, milk, salt, and black pepper. Mash everything together until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Stir in the minced garlic, chopped green onions, and 1.5 cups of cheddar cheese. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 6

Transfer the mashed potato mixture into the prepared baking dish. Spread it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining 0.5 cups of cheddar cheese over the top of the casserole.

Step 8

In a small bowl, combine the breadcrumbs with the olive oil and mix until the breadcrumbs are evenly coated. Sprinkle this mixture over the cheese layer.

Step 9

Bake the casserole in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and bubbly.

Step 10

Remove from the oven and let it rest for 5 minutes before serving. Garnish with extra chopped green onions, if desired. Enjoy!
