Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes Pioneer Recipes

SLOW-COOKER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Toss the potatoes, butter, 1 tablespoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon pepper together in a 6-quart slow cooker. Add 1 cup of water, then cover and cook on high until the potatoes are tender, about 4 hours. (The potatoes might have browned lightly in spots but that is okay.)
• Remove the lid and add the sour cream and 1 1/2 cups warm milk to the potatoes. Use a potato masher to smash the potatoes until they are mostly smooth. If the potatoes need to be thinned out, stir in the remaining 1/2 cup warm milk. Season to taste with additional salt and pepper. Garnish with chives.

SLOW COOKER MASHED POTATOES

Steps:

• Combine potatoes, chicken broth (see note below), butter, and salt in a slow cooker. Stir together, then cover and cook on high for 3-4 hours, until potatoes are tender and fluffy-looking. Mash with a potato masher or fork (or put them through a potato ricer, for super smooth potatoes), then add sour cream, chives or scallions, heavy cream or milk, or whatever ingredients you'd like. Season to taste, then serve and enjoy!Note: I used unsalted chicken broth. If you use full salt, reduce the salt to 1 teaspoon, then season to taste at the end. If you wish to skip the chicken broth, substitute water instead.
