Why You’ll Love This Recipe

  • 🥔 Effortless: Minimal prep — just wash, wrap, and place in the crockpot.
  • ⏱️ Hands-Off Cooking: Let your slow cooker do the work while you focus on other tasks.
  • 🌿 Customizable: Add butter, herbs, garlic, or cheese for an extra flavor boost.
  • 🍽️ Perfectly Tender: Slow cooking ensures soft, fluffy insides every time.

Ingredients

  • Medium-sized potatoes (russet, red, or Yukon gold work best)
  • Olive oil or butter (optional, for extra richness)
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Optional extras: garlic powder, dried rosemary, thyme, or shredded cheese

Instructions

  1. Prep the Potatoes:
    Wash each potato thoroughly and pat dry. If desired, prick a few holes in each potato with a fork to prevent steam buildup.
  2. Wrap in Foil:
    Brush each potato with olive oil or butter, then season with salt, pepper, and any optional spices. Wrap tightly in aluminum foil.
  3. Place in Crockpot:
    Arrange the foil-wrapped potatoes in the slow cooker. Stack them carefully if needed — just don’t overcrowd the pot.
  4. Cook:
    Cover and cook on low for 6–8 hours or on high for 3–4 hours, depending on the size of the potatoes. They should be tender when pierced with a fork.
  5. Serve and Enjoy:
    Carefully remove the foil (it will be hot!) and serve the potatoes as-is, or top with butter, sour cream, shredded cheese, or your favorite toppings.
