Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pounds Baby potatoes
- 2 cups Cheddar cheese, shredded
- 8 slices Bacon, cooked and crumbled
- 4 stalks Green onions, thinly sliced
- 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 4 tablespoons Butter, cubed
- 0.5 cup Sour cream (optional for garnish)
Instructions
Wash and dry the baby potatoes. Cut larger potatoes in half to ensure even cooking, leaving smaller ones whole.
Spray the inside of your crock pot with non-stick cooking spray or lightly grease it with olive oil.
Spread an even layer of potatoes at the bottom of the crock pot.
Sprinkle a third of the shredded cheddar cheese, crumbled bacon, and green onions over the potatoes.
Dust the layer with a pinch of garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Add a few cubes of butter.
Repeat layers (potatoes, cheese, bacon, green onions, seasonings, butter) until all ingredients are used up, finishing with a top layer of cheese.
Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to cook on low for 4-5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender when pierced with a fork.
Once cooked, give the potatoes a gentle toss to distribute the melted cheese and toppings evenly.
Serve warm, garnished with additional green onions and a dollop of sour cream, if desired.
