			Liquid Mixture
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream
- 1/4 cup chicken broth
- 2 tsp minced garlic
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 tsp pepper
Potatoes and Cheese
- 3 lb. russet potatoes, peeled and sliced approximately 1/4″ thick
- 1/2 cup shredded parmesan cheese
- 2 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Mixture: In a small mixing bowl, combine the heavy whipping cream, chicken broth, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Stir well to blend all the flavors evenly.
- Prepare the Slow Cooker: Spray the inside of your crock pot with a non-stick cooking spray to prevent sticking and make cleanup easier.
- Layer the Potatoes and Cheese: Start by placing one-third of the sliced potatoes evenly on the bottom of the crock pot. Pour one-third of the cream mixture over the potatoes, then sprinkle one-third of the cheddar cheese and one-third of the parmesan cheese on top. Repeat these layers two more times, finishing with a layer of cheese on top.
- Cook the Potatoes: Cover the crock pot with its lid and cook on the high setting for 3 to 4 hours, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
- Optional Garnish and Serve: If desired, sprinkle chopped fresh parsley on top for a pop of color. Serve the scalloped potatoes immediately while warm and creamy.
Notes
- This easy Slow Cooker Scalloped Potatoes recipe is a great homemade alternative to store-bought packaged scalloped potatoes and offers superior flavor and texture.
