Crockpot Mashed Potatoes

Servings: 10 servings
Cost: $8
Ingredients
- 3 lb Yukon Gold Potatoes
- 1-2 cups chicken broth
- 1 tablespoon seasoned salt
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- Milk as needed
- 1 tablespoon dried herbs of choice I used Italian seasoning
- Additional seasoned salt to taste (about 1-2 teaspoons)
Instructions
- You can peel the potatoes or leave the skins on and clean them really well. (I like leaving my skins on.) Cut potatoes into quarters.
- Place potatoes in the bottom of a 6-quart crockpot. Add chicken broth just to cover the potatoes. Cover and cook on high 3-4 hours (mine took exactly 3 hours but all crockpots cook differently.) Potatoes are done and ready to be mashed when they fall easily off a fork when pierced.
- Drain the potatoes (reserve some potato stock if you want to use instead of milk when mashing).
- Add the butter, sour cream, and cream cheese and mash until your desired consistency, adding milk as needed. (I like my potatoes a bit chunky and less creamy, but everyone likes them their own way.) Add the herbs and more seasoned salt, to taste.
- Serve hot. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
