Peel and slice the potatoes thinly.

Layer half of the potatoes in the baking dish.

Sprinkle half of the ham over the potatoes.

In a bowl, mix cream of mushroom soup, milk, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper.

Melt butter and mix with bread crumbs, then sprinkle over the cheese.

Cover the dish with aluminum foil and bake for 30 minutes.

Remove foil and bake for an additional 15-20 minutes until golden and bubbly.
