Ingredients

• 2 pounds Baby potatoes (or small Yukon Gold potatoes)
• 1 large Yellow onion
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 packet Dried onion soup mix
• 0.5 teaspoons Salt
• 0.25 teaspoons Black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

Wash and scrub the baby potatoes thoroughly. If using larger potatoes, cut them into quarters or bite-sized pieces.

Step 2

Peel and thinly slice the yellow onion into rings or half-moons.

Step 3

In the bottom of the crock pot, add the olive oil and swirl it around to lightly coat the surface.

Step 4

Layer the potatoes and sliced onions in the crock pot, spreading them evenly.

Step 5

Melt the unsalted butter in a microwave-safe dish, then pour it over the potatoes and onions.

Step 6

Sprinkle the garlic powder, dried onion soup mix, salt, and black pepper evenly over the potatoes and onions. Toss gently to ensure the seasoning is distributed well.

Step 7

Cover the crock pot with the lid and set it to low heat. Cook for 4–5 hours, or until the potatoes are tender and can be pierced easily with a fork. Stir halfway through for even cooking.

Step 8

Once cooked, taste and adjust seasoning if needed by adding extra salt or pepper.

Step 9

Serve hot, garnished with freshly chopped parsley if desired.
