Slow cooker potato soup is the epitome of comfort food. With fall weather in full force, I am ready to cuddle under a blanket with all the bacon and creamy soup I can get.

This soup is one of the easiest and tastiest that you will make. Forget about hitting your local Panera Bread, this homemade crockpot version is so much better.

Plus, crockpot potato soup is budget friendly.

Hey guys, it's Catalina from Sweet and Savory Meals here. I am happy to be a contributor on TSRI and add recipes to Donna and Chad's already great collection.

What kind of potatoes are best for potato soup?

When making potato soup, you really want a low starch potato (often referred to as 'waxy') that will not absorb the broth like a starchy potato will.

Red potatoes are perfect to use for crockpot potato soup.

Waxy potatoes are creamy and high-moisture, with low starch.

They hold their shape well when cooked and have a thinner skin.

As a result, they are perfect for skin on potato soup, potato salad, casseroles and gratin.

In comparison, starchy potatoes are fluffy and low in moisture, but high in starch. They are very absorbent and will suck up all the flavor you add to them.

However, starchy potatoes do not hold their shape well.

How long does Potato Soup last in the fridge?

Properly wrapped in an airtight plastic container potatoes soup will stay fresh in the fridge for about 3 days.

Recipe tips for crockpot potato soup:


  • I prefer to use Yukon gold potatoes for this recipe. They have the perfect flavor and buttery texture to make the soup irresistibly creamy.


  • You can either cook the bacon prior to starting the soup, by frying it or roasting it in the oven, whatever method you prefer. Also, you can use pre-cooked bacon to save time and cut down on the effort.


  • You can use evaporated canned milk, or for even a richer texture, you can use half and half or heavy cream.

Tools for making the crockpot potato soup recipe:

Slow Cooker - the slow cooker is almost my most used kitchen gadget, especially during fall/winter! It's just so convenient, and lets face it, it makes comfort food taste even better!
Potato Masher - the kitchen tool that should be in each's one kitchen drawer! Work those arm muscles!

Enjoy!

COOK'S NOTES

  2. Serve warm, garnished with bacon, cheese and sour cream.
  3. The soup can be refrigerated for up to 3 days.
