Crockpot scalloped potatoes are an excellent alternative when the oven is filled with other dishes. For an oven-baked look, add extra cheese and brown them under the broiler just before serving.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 pounds potatoes (red-skinned or Yukon Gold)
  • 4 tablespoons butter (plus more for the crock pot)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper (or to taste)
  • 1 1/2 cups milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • Fresh chopped chives or parsley, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Liberally butter the bottom and sides of the crockery insert.
  2. Peel the potatoes and slice them into 1/4-inch rounds. Put the potatoes in the buttered slow cooker.
  3. Combine 4 tablespoons of butter in a saucepan over medium-low heat. Add the flour, salt, and pepper to the butter. Cook for about 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Gradually whisk the milk into the flour mixture. Continue to cook until thickened, stirring constantly. Add the shredded cheese and continue to cook until the cheese has melted.
  4. Pour the cheese sauce over the potatoes in the slow cooker.
  5. Cover the crockpot and cook on low for about 5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender. Stir every 1 1/2 hours to keep the potatoes coated with the sauce.
  6. Transfer the potatoes and sauce to a serving bowl and garnish with chopped parsley or chives.
