Slow Cooker Mashed Potatoes
"I love using my slow cooker, and making mashed potatoes in it is great for the holidays or just a busy weeknight! My slow cooker Mashed Potatoes have the skin on, but you can peel them if you want to. We love our Brown Butter Mashed Potatoes too, but I love the set it and forget it aspect of this recipe. Some people have asked why I would cook potatoes for 3-4 hours in a slow cooker instead of just making them on the stove. I’ll be honest, when cooking a big dinner I hate making mashed potatoes. All the peeling takes forever, then you have to make sure they are boiled just right, and of course, you can make them tough by over-beating, or mushy and watery by overcooking them. That’s why I love these slow cooker mashed potatoes so much!"
