Everyone loves an easy recipe, especially if it tastes amazing! Potato Bake with French Onion Soup are so easy to make and full of flavor, and only uses 4 ingredients!
If you love potato, then this is the perfect side dish. Potatoes are such a staple in our western diet, from Garlic mashed Potatoes, Pan Fried Potatoes to Roasted Potato Wedges. It’s a hit of carbs which I know that I crave with my meals.
I love the flavors in this Potato Bake with French Onion Soup recipe. It was our friend Bec who had us over for dinner and made this for us, and I had to share and blog it! An easy recipe with potatoes with French Onion soup. I love an easy recipe that tastes great too.
How to Make an Easy Potato Bake
Everyone looks for time saving tips when making dinner. All you need is a dry French Onion Soup packet from your grocery store. Mix that with whipping cream and pour over your sliced potatoes. Then add grated cheese. This is not diet food, but should be renamed Heart Attack Potatoes. That doesn’t have a very marketable name.
Potato Bake with French Onion Soup is a cheap and easy recipe to make, and even though it’s a heart attack on a plate, it’s sure to be a family favorite! Just remember to go for a jog afterwards. Bon Appetit! Приятного аппетита!

Recipe Notes
Instead of using only whipping cream, you can add 1 cup of sour cream with 1 cup of whipping cream for a different flavor. For extra onion flavor, place some thinly sliced onions on top of the potatoes before baking in the oven (even better if you caramelize them first!).

I started this website as a way to capture the recipes that I grew up with, and pass them onto the next generation. Being world travellers, there are foods from all over the world, but my passion is primarily the Russian foods I grew up with. 
I just made this and it is absolutely delicious!! This is my new favorite potato recipe😀
Thanks so much! So glad you love it as much as we do!!! 👍🏻👍🏻
Sorry folks… but French Onion Soup packets contain beef bouillon. Not a Vegetarian dish. It sounds easy and yummy, but I can’t serve it to my Vegetarian friends.
Hi Rose, that’s definitely not the case with the French Onion Soup mixes I use here in Australia. They are vegetarian. I suggest for people to check the ingredients before use. I see the Knorr Onion mix has beef in it, I find that surprising. Thanks for sharing this info!!
Omg please help. Mine is still soup and has cooked for 50 minutes. At 350.
It will look a bit soupy before removing the foil, it will thicken up with the foil off and then you add the cheese, bake for a further 10-15 minutes. It’s not done yet at 50 minutes. It will further thicken as it cools further out of the oven, but the finished dish shouldn’t be soup! Hope it worked out!
These look delish!!
Thanks Kim, taste great too! Maximum flavor, minimum effort! ????
Wow!!!This recipe looks and sounds so delicious! I love all of your recipes,Thanks for sharing such a wonderful one!!
