The Best Creamy Garlic Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes

This is really fascinating to me. I’ve never thought of using a slow cooker for mashed potatoes! I also prefer skins on.

Ingredients

• 1/2 cup sour cream or whole milk greek yogurt
• 1/2-1 cup unsweetened almond milk, plus more to thin potatoes out if necessary (can also use skim milk or 2% milk)
• Salt and pepper, to taste
• 5 pounds gold potatoes, diced (peeled or unpeeled, your choice)
• 6 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 cup chicken broth or vegetarian broth
• 1/3 cup softened butter (or vegan butter)

To garnish:

• Extra butter
• Fresh thyme spigs
• Freshly ground black pepper

Instructions

1. Frist, In a large 5 or 6 quart slow cooker add diced potatoes, minced garlic and broth. 
2. Then Cook on high for 3-4 hours until potatoes are very fork tender.
3. Next, Once potatoes are done cooking, place slow cooker on warm setting and add in butter, sour cream and 1/2 cup of milk to start. Use a potato masher to mash potatoes until they reach your desired consistency. I happen to like my potatoes super creamy, so I mash them until they’re completely smooth. 
4. Next, If you want your potatoes creamier, add in ½ cup-1 cup more milk. Finally, a generous amount of salt and pepper, then mix again. 
5. Then Taste, and add more salt and pepper if necessary.
6. next, Transfer to a large warm casserole dish for serving, add a pat of butter, a sprinkle of fresh thyme, and a little freshly ground black pepper. Serves 10.
7. Enjoy It !
