When it comes to comfort food, it’s pretty hard to beat a potato recipe. And if you make them creamy and cheesy it’s just about game over for competition. These Kentucky Crockpot Potatoes check every box. This family favorite is creamy, hearty, and packed with flavor, making it a perfect side dish for family dinners or potlucks. It’s a set-it-and-forget-it kinda recipe that couldn’t be much easier. Let’s get into how they’re made…

This recipe starts out with two bags of frozen O’Brien potatoes. This saves you any peeling or chopping, and onions and peppers are already added to the mix. The creaminess is brought in with potato soup and sour cream to give it that luscious, creamy texture, while garlic powder, salt, and black pepper bring just the right balance of seasoning. Toss it all in the slow cooker with your potatoes, and you’re already halfway there!

Of course, it wouldn’t be a true comfort dish without a generous helping of cheddar cheese. Stirring half into the potatoes gives you that melty goodness throughout, while sprinkling the rest on top makes for a gooey, golden layer that seals the deal.
After just a few hours in the slow cooker, you’re left with tender potatoes coated in a creamy, cheesy sauce that feels both indulgent and homey. Simple, satisfying, and irresistibly cheesy, Kentucky Potatoes are a recipe you’ll come back to again and again.
