Instructions

Preheat oven to 400°F (200°C). Grease a muffin tin with melted butter. This will prevent the potato roses from sticking.
Wash and peel the potatoes. Use a mandoline slicer or vegetable peeler to create thin, even slices. Uniform slices ensure even cooking and make it easier to form the roses.
In a small bowl, combine the melted butter, Italian seasoning, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
Arrange 10-12 potato slices in a slightly overlapping row. Brush the slices with the seasoned butter mixture.
Gently roll the row of potato slices, starting from one end. This creates the rose shape. Place each rose into a cup of the prepared muffin tin.
Brush the tops of the potato roses with the remaining seasoned butter. If desired, sprinkle with grated Parmesan cheese.
Bake for 40-45 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown and crispy and the potatoes are tender. The edges will become beautifully browned and crisp as they bake.
Remove from the oven and serve immediately. These potato roses pair well with a variety of dipping sauces.

Recipe Notes

Good To Know

For extra crispiness, soak the potato slices in cold water for 20-30 minutes before assembling; this removes excess starch and helps them bake up with beautifully crisp edges.
If you want a smoky flavor, sprinkle a bit of smoked paprika between the potato layers along with the Italian seasoning.
For an eye-catching presentation, alternate regular and purple potato slices to create roses with a two-tone effect.
Leftover potato roses can be reheated in an air fryer or hot oven for a few minutes to restore their crispiness before serving as a next-day snack or side.

Expert Tips

Use a mandoline slicer to ensure the potato slices are uniformly thin, which will help them cook evenly and create a more aesthetically pleasing rose.
Don't overcrowd the muffin tin. Leave a little space between each rose to allow for even heat circulation and browning.
Brush the potato roses with melted butter or olive oil before baking to enhance their flavor and golden color.
