👩🍳 Instructions
Preheat the oven to 425°F (220°C).
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or lightly grease it.
Wash the potatoes and slice them into ¼-inch (6 mm) rounds.
In a large bowl, toss the potato slices with the olive oil, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, salt, and pepper.
Arrange the slices in a single layer on the baking sheet.
Bake for 20 minutes, then flip each slice.
Bake for another 10–15 minutes, until the potatoes are tender and lightly browned.
Sprinkle shredded cheddar over each potato round.
Return to the oven for 2–3 minutes, just until the cheese is melted.
Garnish with chives and any optional toppings before serving.

💡 Tips
Cut the potato slices to an even thickness so they cook uniformly.
For extra crispiness, soak the sliced potatoes in cold water for 20–30 minutes, then dry them thoroughly before seasoning.
Freshly shredded cheese melts more smoothly than pre-shredded cheese.
✨ Bottom Line
Cheesy Potato Rounds are crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, and topped with gooey melted cheese. They're simple to make and perfect as an appetizer, party snack, or comforting side dish. 🥔🧀😋
