About Crockpot Mashed Potatoes

Crockpot mashed potatoes is game changing! One of my sons best friends told his mom that this recipe has been the best thing that has happened to their dinner menu! haha! My son’s favorite food is mashed potatoes. I used to loathe mashed potatoes. Maybe it was the fact that one of my childhood kitchen memories was shucking corn and peeling potatoes on Sunday for my mom. But I honestly prefer twice baked potatoes over mashed potatoes. Which ultimately are twice as hard as these hence their name.
 
But ever since I started making mashed potatoes this way we have had them way more often which means by oldest son is even more happy come dinner time! I hope this recipe is as life changing to your dinner menu as it has been for our family and my friends!

  1. I’ve used your mashed potato recipe before and love it. So easy! This time I didn’t realize I have russets. Just wondering why these need to be peeled but red do not?
    Thanks so much!
