Ingredients
6 small potatoes, peeled and cubed
3 tablespoons butter
2 cups cubed fully cooked ham
1 small onion, finely chopped
¼ cup butter
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1 ½ cups milk
salt and ground black pepper to taste
1 (8 ounce) package shredded Cheddar cheese
¼ cup bread crumbs
Directions
Step 1 Place potatoes into a large pot and cover with salted water; bring to a boil. Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer until tender, about 20 minutes. Drain.
Step 2 Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Step 3 Grease a 1 1/2-quart baking dish.

Step 5 Stir potatoes into ham mixture; transfer to the prepared baking dish.
Step 6 Melt 1/4 cup butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir flour into melted butter until smooth.
Step 7 Gradually whisk milk into flour mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Continue cooking and stirring until thickened, about 2 minutes.
Step 8 Reduce heat to medium-low and stir Cheddar cheese into the white sauce until melted.
Step 9 Pour sauce over ham and potatoes.
Step 10 Sprinkle bread crumbs atop casserole.
Step 11 Bake in the preheated oven until sauce is bubbly and browned, 25 to 30 minutes.
