This is Amelia’s easy Crockpot Loaded Potato Soup recipe, a comforting dish perfect for busy days. You combine simple ingredients in your slow cooker for a rich, cheesy, bacon-infused soup with minimal effort.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3 pounds potatoes, peeled and cubed
  • 1 large onion, chopped
  • 4 cups chicken broth
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of chicken soup
  • 1 (10.5 ounce) can cream of celery soup
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 4 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
  • 1/2 cup sour cream (optional, for serving)
  • 2 green onions, sliced (for garnish)
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions

  1. Place the cubed potatoes and chopped onion into the slow cooker.
  2. Pour the chicken broth, cream of chicken soup, and cream of celery soup over the potatoes and onions.
  3. Stir everything gently to combine.
  4. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours, or on high for 3 to 4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
  5. About 30 minutes before serving, stir in the milk and shredded cheddar cheese until the cheese melts and the soup is creamy.
  6. Season with salt and pepper to your preference.
  7. Ladle the soup into bowls. Top each serving with crumbled bacon, sliced green onions, and a dollop of sour cream if you desire.

Notes

  • For the creamiest texture, mash some of the potatoes against the side of the slow cooker before adding the milk and cheese.
  • You can substitute frozen hash browns for fresh potatoes to save on prep time.
  • If you prefer a thicker soup, reduce the amount of chicken broth slightly.
  • This recipe freezes well; cool completely before storing.
