Looking for a good recipe where I can make mashed potatoes in my crockpot so I can impress the heck out of my family I’m hosting, so I’m looking for an easy way to do them. Thanks!

Check Pinterest? I’m sure there are a million recipes.
Or you could make them the normal way in advance and then just put them in the slow cooker to warm up on Thxg?

I always bake my potatoes and put them through a ricer. Smoothest, most potato-y tasting mashed 'taters you ever ate. (And I make them the day before, adding in all the butter, salt, pepper etc. Just heat them up in a crockpot on the day.)

I just used a recipe from allrecipes. It was called slow cooker mashed potatoes. It was really good.

I don't follow a recipe - I just make my mashed potatoes as usual first thing in the morning and put them in the crock pot on low. I spray the crock pot with PAM first and I give them a stir every now and then. They come out fine!

I often make them for our work holiday party in the crock pot.
I make them the night before. Just cube and boil, drain and mash with milk,butter, sour cream and salt. Then I put them in the crock and stick it in the fridge. I take the whole thing to work and turn it on when I get there. I stir occasionally and a little more butter so they don' dry out. They key is lots of butter and sour cream. Everyone loves them.

I make regular mashed potatoes and then add a half brick of regular cream cheese. I put it in the crock pot to reheat the next day.

I usually only use the crock pot for mashed potatoes when we are having a big dinner and I want to get them out of the way early so I don't have to jack with them during the main meal prep.
I just make them a few hours earlier and put them in the crock pot (using a liner cause I hate washing the crock pot after potatoes!. LOL) and keep them on low. Stirring occasionally.
Best wishes!
