Peel the russet potatoes and yellow onion. Grate both using a box grater or food processor with a shredding attachment.
Transfer the grated potatoes and onion to a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible to ensure the kugel doesn't become soggy.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the eggs until blended.
Add the grated potatoes and onion to the eggs, along with the potato starch, salt, ground black pepper, and garlic powder. Mix well to combine.
Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Pour the hot oil into the potato mixture, stirring quickly to incorporate.
Spray the inside of your slow cooker generously with cooking spray to prevent sticking.
Transfer the potato mixture into the slow cooker and spread it out evenly, pressing down gently with a spatula to create a flat surface.
Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours, or on low for 6-8 hours, until the edges are golden brown and the center is firm.
Carefully remove the kugel from the slow cooker by running a knife around the edges and inverting it onto a serving dish.
Let cool for 10 minutes before slicing into portions. Serve warm and enjoy!
