crockpot mashed potatoes

With the same satisfying flavors and creamy texture as the stovetop mashed potatoes but simplified in the slow cooker! They&#039;re always absolutely delicious and very likely to become a family favorite!

Crockpot Mashed Potatoes

water

chicken broth

lbs russet potatoes, (peeled

Salt, (to taste)

unsalted butter, (melted)

half and half,* (heated)

Pour water and chicken broth into a 4 - 6 quart slow cooker, then as you peel and cut each potato add them to the broth mixture in slow cooker to prevent browning.

Season with salt to taste.

Cover and cook on high heat 2 3/4 to 3 1/2 hours until potatoes are fully tender all the way through.

Drain potatoes in a colander in the sink. Then either return potatoes to slow cooker and mash with a potato masher, or for a completely lump-free option pass potatoes through a potato ricer or a food mill into slow cooker.

Add heated melted butter, heated half and half, season with more salt as needed then gently stir with a spatula or wooden spoon just to blend. Don&#039;t over-mix or they&#039;ll be gluey.

Serve warm, if desired topped with gravy or butter.

A few years ago I discovered making BAKED potatoes in the crockpot (which is SO helpful when you are cooking a prime rib roast and only have one oven) but it had never occurred to me to try making the MASHED variety in my ceramic friend. Turns out it’s even easier than the traditional kind!
