Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
- Ready In:
- 2hrs 5mins
- Ingredients:
- 9
- Serves:
-
8
ingredients
- 2 lbs red potatoes, halved (I leave the peel on, but feel free to remove if you prefer)
- 2 cups water
- 1⁄2 teaspoon salt
- 1⁄2 cup heavy cream (or greek yogurt)
- 2 tablespoons butter
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 2 tablespoons garlic powder (or 5 garlic cloves, roasted and diced)
- salt, to taste
- pepper, to taste
directions
- In crock pot, add 2 cups of water and potatoes.
- Cook on high for 1-2 hours or until potatoes are very soft to touch.
- Water should be almost evaporated and potatoes will mash when gently touched. If you have a lot of water leftover, drain it off. If you have under 1/2 cup, go ahead and leave it. This will help keep your potatoes from over drying while waiting for dinner to be done- so you can make them ahead of time.
- Add cream, butter, garlic and mash well using hand mixer or mashing utensil, right there in the crock pot.
- Add salt and pepper to taste.
- Keep potatoes on medium or low for up to 2 hours, or until ready to serve.
