🧂 Ingredients and Substitutes

Russet potatoes: I think Russet potatoes are the ultimate slow-cooking potato, but you can replace them with red potatoes, gold potatoes, fingerling potatoes, or any potato you prefer with similar results

Spices: I really love the combo of paprika, garlic, and oregano, but if you aren’t a fan, feel free to omit or replace any of them.

Oil: Olive oil and avocado oil taste best with these potatoes, but feel free to use what you have on hand.

  • 1 teaspoon ground oregano
  • 1 teaspoon salt

Notes

As served in the photos: I like to sprinkle some parmesan cheese and everything seasoning on the potatoes a few minutes before serving.
Cook time: My slow cooker takes 2 hours on high and 4 on low, but depending on the slow cooker used and how thickly the potatoes are cut it could take as long as 3 on high or 5 on low.
The skin: I prefer to keep the skin on, but if you aren’t a fan, feel free to peel the potatoes instead.

    We’ve done this once and already have it on the meal plan for next week! They come out so tender – and adding cheese on top seals the deal! Can’t wait to keep making these and trying different seasoning combinations.

    These were SO good and SO easy! I loved that I could just throw them in the slow cooker and forget about them. I had perfectly roasted potatoes that were full of flavor. I will definitely be making this recipe again!

    This is a great recipe! Never made roast potatoes in a slow cooker before, and had no idea that they’d work so well! Will definitely make these again over Christmas to save the precious oven space 🙂

    These potatoes turned out perfectly in the slow cooker! They were slightly crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. Totally delicious!
