These mashed potatoes will change your life. Creamy, tons of flavor, and seriously the easiest mashed potatoes you will ever make - you'll never go back to boiling and smashing!
Author: Tiffany
Recipe type: Side Dish
Cuisine: American
Serves: 6
INGREDIENTS
2 pounds red potatoes, cut into 2 inch pieces (you can peel them but I never do - I love red potato skins in my mashed potatoes!)
1/2 cup sour cream (or plain greek yogurt)
1/4 cup milk
2 teaspoons minced garlic
2 teaspoons salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
Make Cheesy Ziti and Meatballs
INSTRUCTIONS
Spray the inside of a slow cooker with cooking spray. Add chopped potatoes. Cover and cook 2-3 hours on high or 5-6 hours on low.
Add sour cream, milk, garlic, salt, and pepper to potatoes. Use a hand mixer to blend together all ingredients. (Please see note below recipe!) Give them a taste and add more salt if desired. Serve plain, or with any favorite toppings such as gravy, or cheese and bacon. OR - check out my brand new variation - Slow Cooker Buttery Garlic Herb Mashed Potatoes!
NOTES
*This recipe can easily be doubled for large groups - just increase the cooking time by 1-2 hours.
**You can also smash the potatoes if you prefer, I like to use the hand mixer because it is so FAST and easy and I can make them as smooth or as textured as I want to be mixing them for a longer or shorter time!
