These 3-Ingredient Parmesan Crusted Potato Halves are crispy on the outside, buttery in the middle, and unbelievably easy to make. As the potatoes roast, the Parmesan cheese melts and turns golden and crunchy, creating the perfect crispy crust while the inside stays soft and creamy.

Parmesan Crusted Potato Halves

Ingredients:

• 2 lbs small potatoes (baby gold or red potatoes), halved
• 1 1/2 cups finely grated Parmesan cheese
• 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted

Directions:

Step 1: Prepare the Pan
Preheat the oven to 400°F. Pour the melted butter onto a rimmed baking sheet, then evenly sprinkle the Parmesan cheese over the butter to create a cheesy base layer.

Tip: A darker baking pan works especially well because it helps the cheese crisp up and turn beautifully golden.

Step 2: Add the Potatoes
Pat the cut sides of the potatoes dry with a paper towel, then place them cut-side down directly onto the Parmesan mixture. Press gently so the potatoes make full contact with the cheese.

Tip: Dry potatoes help the Parmesan stick better and create that crispy cheese crust.

Step 3: Roast
Bake for 35–45 minutes, or until the potato skins are wrinkled and the Parmesan crust is deep golden brown.

Visual Cue: The potatoes are ready when the cheese is bubbling and crisp around the edges.

Step 4: Let Them Rest
Allow the potatoes to rest for 5–10 minutes before removing them from the pan.

Tip: Letting them cool slightly helps the cheese crust firm up so it stays attached to the potatoes.

Step 5: Serve
Use a thin spatula to carefully lift the potatoes from the pan and serve them cheese-side up for maximum crispiness
