Ultimate Loaded Baked Potato Soup Recipe for Your Slow Cooker
  • Prep Time
    20 mins
  • Cook Time
    3 hrs 55 mins
  • Total Time
    4 hrs 15 mins

Ingredients

  • 8 generously-sized Idaho potatoes with their skins intact, diced into 1-inch cubes
  • A carton of chicken broth, totaling 32 ounces in volume
  • A loaf of processed cheese food (like Velveeta®), weighing 1 pound and cut into cubes
  • A pint of luxurious heavy whipping cream
  • A container of sour cream, containing 16 ounces
  • A package of softened cream cheese, weighing 8 ounces
  • 1 cup of finely chopped white onion
  • 1 cup of finely chopped green onions
  • A package of bacon, weighing 1 pound

Step 1

To start, add potatoes to a large pot filled with salted water, allowing them to boil until tender for about 10 minutes. Once ready, drain them.

Step 2

Next, in a slow cooker, mix the boiled potatoes with chicken broth, processed cheese, heavy cream, sour cream, cream cheese, white onion, and green onions for a flavorful base.

Step 3

In a separate large skillet, cook the bacon over medium-high heat until crispy and browned evenly, which usually takes around 10 minutes. Pat dry the bacon on paper towels, letting it cool for about 5 minutes before crumbling it into the slow cooker.

Step 4

Set the slow cooker to High and stir occasionally as the potatoes break down over approximately 2 hours. Lower the heat to Low and continue cooking for an additional 1 hour and 30 minutes until the soup reaches a thick consistency.

Extra Tips & Suggestions

  1. 1. Keep your potatoes in a cool, dark place to prevent sprouting and maintain freshness. A pantry or cellar works best.
  2. 2. Store your bacon in the freezer for longer shelf life. Just take out what you need before adding it to your slow cooker.
  3. 3. Keep your onions in a well-ventilated area to prevent moisture build-up and sprouting. A wire-mesh basket or a paper bag works great.
