This is my favorite way to make mashed potatoes - it's easy + delicious with minimal hands-on time. I can just chop the potatoes quickly + toss everything in the crockpot, then mashing + seasoning takes about 2 minutes. This recipe is a godsend during a busy Thanksgiving meal prep.
Ingredients
6 russet potatoes, chopped (peeled or unpeeled - it's your preference)
2 cups chicken or turkey bone broth
6 tbsp salted butter
1 cup cream or whole milk (you can totally use unsweetened cashew milk if you prefer)
sea salt to taste
Instructions
Toss the potato chunks + broth in a 6-quart crockpot on high + cook 3-4 hours, until potatoes are cooked through.
With a potato masher, mash potatoes right there in the crockpot, then stir in butter + cream until potatoes are the consistency you prefer. Salt them to taste.
Set the crockpot to warm, then the mashed potatoes can hang out in there until you're ready to eat! If they get a bit too thick after sitting for a while, just stir in a little more broth or cream before serving.
