Slow Cooker Creamy Hash Brown Potatoes

I’m usually a crispy-hash-browns kind of guy. I like the potatoes to get that nice little crust on them.  And don’t tell anyone this, I like to put butter on them instead of ketchup. Well, this time I decided to go another route with frozen cubed hash brown potatoes. These slow cooker creamy hash brown potatoes are rich and tasty. They are the perfect breakfast side, whether breakfast is in the morning or for dinner. I’m a big fan of breakfast for dinner. I feel like I’m cheating when I have breakfast for dinner. Like I’m being bad and not getting caught.

Slow Cooker Creamy Hash Brown Potatoes

These Are Not Wimpy Potatoes

For a little kick to your slow cooker creamy hash brown potatoes add diced roasted jalapenos, or use a pepper jack cheese instead of the Colby jack. You can also substitute cayenne pepper for the paprika. It’ll still add the (needed) color and a little spiciness.

Also try making hash brown potatoes using a Cuisinart Griddler. You’ll also love my slow cooker buttermilk grits.
