Yes…I’m all about my slow cooker, especially when the school year begins again!
When you’re busy with kids like we are it is nice to throw everything in your crockpot in the morning and know your warm meal will be there in the evening ready to eat.
If you too love slow cooker recipes of all kinds, you’re going to go crazy over this one. First let’s go over a few resources:
- This 8 quart is my all time favorite model.
- For easier cleanup you can use these liners if you like.

Have you ever made chicken and dumplings in your slow cooker before??
If you’ve tried it on your stovetop you might see how you like it as it cooks all day all on it’s own. I have many different sizes of crockpots but for this and others that feed all of us + leftovers I like my large crockpot here .
They seriously last forever. Between this and my rice cooker I can make meals really quickly and feed all five of us fairly inexpensively too.
Now that we have a pressure cooker we’ve made a similar Instant Pot chicken and dumplings version too.
Use as many veggies as you like but this is a good base, and you can add from there or omit items if you choose as well. Here is the entire slow cooker chicken and dumplings recipe you can print out as well.
Slow cooker chicken and dumplings
- Boneless skinless chicken breasts
- Potatoes
- Carrots
- Celery
- Cream of chicken soup
- Milk
- Bisquick
If you want a stiffer biscuit follow directions on Bisquick box and make small round biscuits the size of your thumb.
Bake until they just start to brown, then add to slow cooker 30 min. before then end, on low. You just want to meld chicken/soup with biscuits to soften them up a bit.

Candy Bott says
Making it now, with low sodium soup. And I had cream of chicken and cream of mushroom in the cabinet so that is what I used. I want it earlier so I’m cooking it for 3 1/2 on high then adding biscuit mix for half hr. I also added a some frozen peas for color. On of my favorite meals but it needs more color.
Olivia says

The Typical Mom says
Yay!!
Rhoda says
I recently tried to used canned biscuits and was not successful.. very goey after 10 minutes.. will this happen w the bisquick too? How do I prevent this from happening. I was trying to save time
The Typical Mom says
I have only used Bisquick and haven’t had that issue. Try that next time.
Lorena says
Canned biscuits when cut in strips are placed the last hour or more. I always used them but they take longer. I’m going to make with biscuick first time today. My grandkids favorite meal.
The Typical Mom says
Oh good!!
Happy baker says
If you use canned biscuits you have to dip them in flour before put into stew. Drop one piece at a time so they dont stick together
Denise says
I made this tonight except I did not have fresh celery and carrot so I cooked exactly as you said but added a diced onion and potato only. I cooked it for 4 hrs on low. Removed the breasts, shredded the meat with a fork and dumped a bag of defrosted frozen veggies and a tablespoon of parsley flakes in. I let it cook for another hour then dropped the bisquick dough and cooked the dumplings till done. Yummy and easy!
Missy says
So are you saying last 30 minutes of cooking is when we drop the biscuit dough in. Do we stir it in ? Are just leave on top thanks
Angel says
Made this tonight, & it was fantastic! I followed the recipe to the letter except for the fact that i added a small onion and let it cook 10 min longer than stated to ensure the dumplings were cooked well… Perfect meal for a chilly fall evening….
Megan says
Just put the dumplings in…. it’s been about 10 minutes and they are all gooey. Am I supposed to be stiring or no?
Lana says
Don’t stir the dumplings
Mar says
Don’t lift the lid! The dumplings need to steam……
Donna says
Can you please provide size of soup cans? How many ounces?
Trisha says
Most cans are 10.5 Oz. That’s the size I use.
Meghan says
Lovely recipe! The chicken turned out super tender and basically fell apart. I added more celery, which was fine. However, I also doubled the dumpling amount. Not a good idea! Haha. Live and learn. But yes, it was very tasty and super simple.
The Typical Mom says
Oh I am glad!
Susan says
Can you use precooked rotisserie chicken
