Slow Cooker Loaded Baked Potato Soup

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe
Potato soup is the ultimate comfort food during the cold winter months.

These fluffy Basil Cheddar Bay Biscuits go perfectly with this soup and are simple to make! Easy to freeze for later use. When completely cooled, add to a ziplock bag or storage bag, remove as much air as possible, and freeze. Microwave for 30 seconds or bake at 400 degrees in the oven for 5 minutes.

    Add basil, parsley, chicken broth, 1/4 cup butter, garlic, and onions.
    Cover and cook on LOW for 5- 6 hours or HIGH for 4 – 5 hours.
    Using a potato masher, mash potatoes until smooth and slightly chunky. The soup will be thin. Add ham, 1/2 & 1/2, and cheeses to the soup and stir. Continue to cook in the slow cooker for 20-30 minutes.
    Cook, drain, and crumble bacon.
    Remove one cup of soup and combine with 3 tablespoons of corn starch. stir until fully combined. Add the “corn starch slurry” to the soup and stir well. The mixture should be thick. If you want a thicker soup, remove 1 cup of soup and 1 tablespoon of corn starch until desired consistency is reached. If the soup is too thick, add a bit of milk until desired consistency is reached.
    Top with bacon and garnish with cheese, green onions, sour cream, or dill, if desired.
