Recipe View 19 mins Bake in the preheated oven until the cheese is bubbly and melted, and the topping is golden brown and crispy, about 18-20 minutes.

For an even richer flavor, try using Gruyere cheese in addition to Swiss.
If you don't have corn flakes, crushed Ritz crackers make a great substitute for the topping.
To prepare ahead, assemble the casserole up to the baking step. Cover and refrigerate for up to 24 hours. Add 5-10 minutes to the baking time if baking directly from the refrigerator.

    I didn't have sour cream so I used plain Greek yogurt and it worked perfectly fine.

    I made this ahead of time and it was so convenient. It baked up perfectly and tasted amazing!

    I added a pinch of nutmeg to the sauce and it gave it a lovely warmth.
