Serves: 6
(Gnocchi Gratinati)
Category: Fresh Gnocchi
In Piedmont, potato gnocchi are topped with cheese and bread crumbs and baked in a heat-proof oval dish known as a gratin. When baked, the cheeses melt and the crumbs become crunchy. The dish can be assembled ahead of time and baked just before you are ready to serve it.

1 Prepare the gnocchi (see Pasta: Potato Gnocchi). Then, place a rack in the center of the oven. Preheat the oven to 350°F. Butter a 13 × 9 × 2-inch baking dish. Sprinkle it with the breadcrumbs.
2 Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the gnocchi and salt to taste. Cook, stirring occasionally, for 30 seconds after the gnocchi float to the surface. Scoop out the gnocchi with a slotted spoon and make a layer of them in the prepared baking dish. Lay half of the Fontina on top and drizzle with half of the butter. Sprinkle with pepper. Make a second layer of gnocchi, Fontina and butter. Sprinkle with the grated cheese and cinnamon.
3 Bake 20 minutes or until bubbling and lightly golden. Serve hot.
