Follow The Directions

01

Step
5 mins

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). (5 minutes)

02

Step
10 mins

Generously coat an 8-inch round baking dish with butter. Arrange bacon slices in a spiral pattern within the dish, allowing the ends to drape over the edge. (10 minutes)

03

Step
15 mins

Layer one-third of the potato slices over the bacon, followed by one-third of the Fontina cheese. Season lightly with salt and pepper. Repeat layering twice more with the remaining potatoes and cheese. (15 minutes)

04

Step
5 mins

Fold the overhanging bacon slices inward to create a savory crust over the potato and cheese filling. (5 minutes)

05

Step
1 hrs

Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 1 hour, or until the potatoes are tender and the bacon is crisp. (60 minutes)

06

Step
10 mins

Remove from oven and let rest for 10 minutes before draining any excess drippings. Cut into wedges and serve warm. (10 minutes)

For a richer flavor, consider using smoked bacon.
Yukon Gold potatoes offer a naturally buttery texture that complements the other ingredients.
Ensure potatoes are thinly sliced to guarantee even cooking.
Freshly grated Fontina cheese melts beautifully and provides a superior flavor compared to pre-shredded options.

    Easy to follow instructions and the results were restaurant-worthy. I used a mix of Gruyere and Fontina cheese for a more complex flavor.

  • Tristian Moore

    I was a bit skeptical at first, but this tart turned out fantastic! The bacon and potato combination is simply delicious. I will definitely make this again.

  • Clemens Effertz

    This recipe is amazing! My family devoured it. I added some caramelized onions and it was a huge hit!

  • Margarette Dietrich

    My potatoes were still a little undercooked after an hour. I ended up covering it with foil and baking it for another 15 minutes. Just a tip for others!

  • Holly Grimes

    The bacon adds such a wonderful flavor to the potatoes. I didn't have Fontina cheese, so I used mozzarella and it was still delicious.

  • Juliet Armstrong

    I made this for a potluck and it was gone in minutes! Everyone loved it. I will definitely be making this again.
