Amazing recipe!! The scalloped potatoes came out moist and tender with a crispy, golden crust. The hazelnuts added an unexpected element of flavor that made this dish stand out.

I've enjoyed cooking this dish several times now, and every time I've been pleased by the combination of textures and flavors. The hazelnuts offer a hint of crunch, and the tanginess of the gruyère contrasts nicely with the richness of the cream.
