Crock Pot Loaded Baked Potato Soup Recipe
Crock Pot Loaded Baked Potato Soup for a great fall dinner!!
Ingredients
- 4 quarts water ~ hot (not boiling)*
- small onion – chopped fine
- 2 cloves garlic
- 8 – 10 medium potatoes (peeled and cut in ½ inch chunks)
- Chicken Base powder*
- 1 cup milk
- 12 oz shredded cheese
- If you don't have access to powdered chicken base, 4 quarts of broth will work, too.
Instructions
- Add 4 quarts hot water to crock pot.
- Add chicken base powder to desired flavor.
- Add potatoes, onion and garlic.
- Cover and cook on high for 5 – 6 hours, until potatoes are soft.
- Mash potatoes ( I use hand masher) until all potatoes are fine pieces.
- Add 1 cup milk and 12 oz shredded cheddar cheese. Stir well. (if you want soup any thicker, slowly add instant mashed potatoes, if you are not careful, you will have loaded mashed potatoes, if that happens, just thin with more milk)
- Serve in bowls topped with sour cream (we used ranch dip), real bacon bits and more cheese. Enjoy!!
- Easy and yummy!!

What perfect comfort food! A toppings bar would go over very well, as assembling your own soup makes it a bit more fun.
Hi, this looks great. What is chicken base powder?
It’s powdered chicken broth. You could use canned or homemade too. Thanks

I just made this soup….did you mean FOUR quarts (one gallon) of liquid? I don’t think you did but the idea is yummy!
Definitey 4 quarts makes a huge batch!
