Crockpot Cheesy Potatoes ~

Rich, creamy, and ultra cheesy!

Fresh Russett potatoes are cubed then coated in a savory homemade vegan cheese sauce and tossed in the slow cooker.

So easy!

Don’t you love a good crockpot recipe? I’m all about the ones that clock in under the 8-hour mark. I mean, I have stuff to do in the mornings so if the prep work can wait until 10 or even after lunchtime, I’m all in.

These easy, cheesy potatoes can be prepped in about 15 minutes and are ready to serve in about 4 hours.

Crockpot Cheesy Potatoes are rich, creamy, and ultra cheesy! Made with fresh Russett potatoes in a savory homemade dairy-free cheese sauce.

Fresh potatoes cut into cubes no larger than 1/2-inch.

Perfect for potlucks and holidays, especially Christmas, Thanksgiving, and Easter dinner. These potatoes would also be good for Mother’s Day brunch.

Ready to cook on low for 4 hours.

I’m warning you though – these cheesy potatoes are seriously addictive!

True story: As soon as the potatoes were done, I could not stop eating them straight out of the crockpot. Burned my tongue but it was totally worth it. Also, you don’t want to serve these super hot anyway because the flavor develops more as the temperature comes down a bit.

So cheesy!

Note: this recipe calls for a 6-quart slow cooker.

Ingredients needed for these Crockpot Cheesy Potatoes:

Russett potatoes
vegan butter
yellow onion
sea salt
ground black pepper
garlic powder
vegan chicken-style broth
vegan sour cream
vegan Cheddar cheese
vegan Parmesan cheese
chives, for garnish

How to make these Crockpot Cheesy Potatoes:

Into a large, deep skillet over medium-high heat, add vegan butter. When butter is melted, add onions. Saute 2-3 minutes, until softened.

Over the onions, sprinkle all-purpose flour, sea salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Stir until evenly coated.

Add vegan chicken-style broth. Reduce heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently for about 3 minutes, until thickened slightly. Remove from heat.

Stir in vegan sour cream and 2 cups of Cheddar cheese and 1/4 cup Parmesan cheese.

Into the skillet, add the cubed potatoes and stir to coat with cheesy sauce.

Prepare a 6-quart slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray or liner.

Add coated potatoes, cover, and cook on low for 4 hours, or until cooked through.

Add remaining 1/2 cup vegan Cheddar cheese and remaining 1/4 cup vegan Parmesan cheese. Recover and allow cheeses to melt for about 15 minutes.

Garnish with chives and serve hot.

Cheers!
