Amish Mother’s Blessing Potatoes Slow Cooker
Amish Mother’s Blessing Potatoes: Directions
-
Put your oval slow cooker on the table. For easy cleaning, spread a bit of butter or oil on the bottom and sides.
-
Place the frozen hash brown patties flat in the bottom. They can overlap a tiny bit, but make one even layer if possible.
-
In a bowl, stir the canned soup, milk, salt, and pepper until smooth. This is your yummy creamy sauce.
-
Pour the sauce over the patties. Cover the tops as much as you can. The sauce will soak in as it heats.
-
Cover with the lid. Cook on LOW for 4 to 5 hours, until potatoes are super soft and edges are bubbly and a little brown. Check at 3.5 hours if you want them firmer.
-
Scoop out with a big spoon or spatula. Some patties stay whole, others break into creamy bits—both are tasty and comfy!
-
Taste it. Add more salt or pepper if needed. Serve hot from the cooker. At a party, set to WARM so folks can grab their own.
These pair great with baked ham, pot roast, roast chicken, green beans, or buttered peas. For fun, eat with fried eggs and toast as breakfast dinner everyone loves. Take the whole cooker to church events, reunions, or neighbors!
