Steps

• In a greased baking dish, layer half of the sliced potatoes. Sprinkle with half of the crumbled bacon, sautéed onion and garlic, shredded cheddar cheese, salt, black pepper, and fresh thyme.
• Repeat the layers with the remaining ingredients.
• Pour the heavy cream over the top of the gratin.
• Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 30 minutes.
