Golden Easter Potato Ring Bake
Elegant, buttery, and surprisingly simple, this Golden Easter Potato Ring Bake is a timeless side dish that turns humble ingredients into a stunning centerpiece. Thinly sliced potatoes are layered with rich cream and melted butter, then baked in a ring mold until beautifully golden and crisp on the outside while remaining tender and creamy within. Perfect for holiday gatherings, Sunday dinners, or any occasion when you want a dish that looks impressive with minimal effort.
Ingredients
2½ lbs (1.1 kg) potatoes, peeled and thinly sliced
½ cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup heavy cream
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Generously brush a 9-inch ring mold or Bundt pan with some of the melted butter.
In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with the remaining butter and cream until evenly coated.
Arrange the potatoes in overlapping layers inside the prepared mold, pressing down gently as you go to create a compact ring.
Cover the mold loosely with foil and bake for 50 minutes.
Remove the foil and continue baking for 25–35 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the top is deeply golden.
Let the potato ring rest for 10 minutes before carefully inverting it onto a serving platter.
Serve warm and enjoy the crispy exterior and creamy, melt-in-your-mouth center.
Tips for Success
Use Yukon Gold potatoes for an extra buttery flavor and creamy texture.
For the neatest presentation, slice the potatoes evenly using a mandoline.
Allow the dish to rest before unmolding to help it hold its beautiful ring shape.

Pair this elegant potato ring with roasted ham, roast chicken, beef tenderloin, or your favorite holiday main course. A sprinkle of fresh parsley just before serving adds a lovely finishing touch.
