1
Preheat the Oven
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
2
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel and thinly slice the russet potatoes using a mandoline or a sharp knife. Aim for about 1/8 inch thickness.
3
Chop the Onion
Dice the medium onion into small pieces.

4
Make the Cream Sauce
In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Once melted, stir in the flour and cook for about 1 minute until bubbly. Gradually whisk in the heavy cream, adding it slowly to avoid lumps. Continue whisking until the mixture thickens, about 5 minutes.
5
Season the Sauce
Add salt, black pepper, and garlic powder to the cream sauce. Stir well to combine.
6
Layer the Ingredients
In a greased 9x13 inch baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes, then half of the diced onions. Pour half of the cream sauce over the top. Repeat with the remaining potatoes, onions, and cream sauce.
7
Add Cheese
Sprinkle the shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top layer of the potatoes.

8
Bake the Dish
Cover the baking dish with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 45 minutes. After 45 minutes, remove the foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until the cheese is golden and bubbly.
9
Cool and Serve
Once baked, remove the dish from the oven and let it cool for about 10 minutes before serving. This will help the layers set.
