Scalloped Potatoes-4-Ingredient Sunday Slow Cooker

Scalloped Potatoes-4-Ingredient Sunday Slow Cooker. Placed it the day before Sunday morning service and went home to the smoothest potatoes I ever had…

Servings: 6

Ingredients

• 3 pounds Yukon Gold potatoes, washed and sliced really thin (approximately 1/8 inch)

• 2 cups heavy cream

• 2 1/2 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese, half

• 1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt, and additional salt to taste

Scalloped Potatoes: Instructions

1. Preparation of Slow Cooker

1. Put a little butter or cooking spray in a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker to coat it.

2. This assists in browning the edges and eases the clean-up process.

2. Season the Cream

1. Whisk the cream and kosher salt in a medium bowl or large measuring cup until dissolved.

2. This seasoned cream will sink into the potatoes and turn into a luxuriously smooth sauce.

3. Add the Layers of Potatoes

1. Place a layer of sliced Yukon Gold potatoes at the bottom of the slow cooker.

2. Arrange in a thin, even layer with overlapping slices resembling shingles.

3. Ensure layers are mostly solid so the sauce circulates around the potatoes.

4. Add Cream and Cheese

1. Drizzle the seasoned cream lightly over the first layer of potatoes.

2. Sprinkle approximately a third of the shredded cheddar cheese on top.

5. Repeat the Layers

1. Continue adding layers of potatoes, cream, and cheese until all potatoes are used.

2. Press down gently on the layers to keep them tight.

3. Spread any leftover cream evenly on top to drip between layers.

6. Add Remaining Cheese

1. Sprinkle the remaining cheddar cheese evenly on top.

2. This top layer will melt, bubble, and turn golden along the edges.

7. Slow Cook

1. Cover the slow cooker with its lid.

2. Bake on LOW for 5–6 hours or until potatoes are tender and cream has thickened.

3. Do not open the lid during the first few hours to maintain heat.

8. Bake Before Serving

1. Once cooked, set the slow cooker on WARM and let potatoes rest, covered, for 15–20 minutes.

2. This allows the creamy sauce to settle between layers and portions to solidify.

9. Serve Crock

1. Place the slow cooker on the table and serve hot.

2. Scrape down through the cheesy, golden top to reach the creamy layers beneath.

3. Sprinkle extra salt on your food at the table if you want.
