Crockpot Baked Potatoes

Simple crockpot baked potatoes recipe that’s perfect for busy days or when you want to free up your oven. They turn out fluffy in your slow cooker, really!

Here is a great recipe for crockpot baked potatoes! It is literally no work and they are the fluffiest potatoes you will ever eat, seriously! You’ve got to try them for dinner. Just add some toppings and you’re set for a really easy meal idea.

What you need to make crockpot baked potatoes

• 4-6 potatoes – russet work the best I think
• Aluminum foil
• Potato fixin’s once they are done
• Crockpot – the more potatoes you need the larger the slow cooker you’ll need obviously

3 other ways to make baked potatoes

1. Pressure cooker baked potatoes – the quickest way to get them cooked
2. Smoked baked potatoes – the taste of these is amazing
3. Best way to make baked potatoes in the oven – so the skins are crispy, insides are fluffy

Prepare the potatoes as usual, but you don’t even need to poke them!

Just wash as usual, dry, and wrap each one in regular aluminum foil. Fit as many as you can into your crockpot. I ended up using a larger slow cooker than the one you see above because I was making 5 instead of 3 this time.

Just put all the wrapped potatoes in the crock for about 8 hrs. on low, that is it. I try to lay them on the bottom so they are at the same level and location, if you have some that are slightly larger make sure those are the lowest in the pot.

• 5 ingredient crockpot chili is excellent, and we cook these together often….two crocks on the counter means a great dinner!
