The easiest mashed potatoes you will ever make. Just throw it all in the crockpot and you’re set. Easy peasy!

Ingredients

3 pounds red potatoes, chopped
¼ cup unsalted butter
4 cloves garlic, crushed and peeled
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
½ cup sour cream
⅓ cup freshly grated Parmesan
2 tablespoons milk, or more, as needed
½ teaspoon dried thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dried basil
¼ teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
2 tablespoons chopped fresh chives

Instructions

Lightly coat the inside of a slow cooker with nonstick spray. Place potatoes, butter, garlic and 1/4 cup water into the slow cooker; season with salt and pepper, to taste. Cover and cook on low heat for 7-8 hours or high heat for 3-4 hours, or until tender.
Add sour cream, Parmesan, milk, thyme, oregano, basil and nutmeg. Using an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, blend potatoes until light and fluffy, about 2-3 minutes. If the mixture is too thick, add more milk as needed until desired consistency is reached.
Serve immediately, garnished with chives, if desired.
