Cheesy Scalloped Potatoes

The perfect compliment to my Christmas glazed ham!  This dish uses shredded cheddar and buttermilk along with onion and garlic to give it a distinct and wonderful flavor.  Yes, I know, you can call this Potatoes Au Gratin, but I like to be different!  It's still smooth, creamy and satisfying!  I'll hope you'll give it a try!  Merry Frickin Christmas!!!


2 lbs. potatoes (yukon or russet), washed and rinsed.  Peeled or not, your choice
3 tbsp. butter, plus more to butter dish
1 tbsp. flour
1 medium onion, chopped
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups half and half
1/2 cup buttermilk (or substitute with half and half)
2 cups shredded cheddar cheese, divided
1/2 cup panko bread crumbs
kosher and cracked black, to taste
