Ingredients

• 6 medium-sized Russet potatoes
• 1 cup Cooked bacon, crumbled
• 2 cups Shredded cheddar cheese
• 1 cup Sour cream
• 0.25 cup Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 can (10.5 oz) Cream of chicken soup
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 2 tablespoons Chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)
• 1 as needed Nonstick cooking spray

Directions

Step 1

Peel and dice the Russet potatoes into 1-inch cubes, then rinse them thoroughly with cold water to remove excess starch. Pat dry.

Step 2

Spray the crock pot's interior generously with nonstick cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, combine the sour cream, melted butter, cream of chicken soup, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and ground black pepper. Stir until the mixture is smooth and well-blended.

Step 4

Fold in the diced potatoes, crumbled cooked bacon, and 1 1/2 cups of shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until the potatoes are fully coated with the creamy mixture.

Step 5

Transfer the potato mixture into the prepared crock pot, spreading it evenly.

Step 6

Cover the crock pot with the lid and cook on LOW for 6 hours, or until the potatoes are fork-tender.

Step 7

Sprinkle the remaining 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese evenly over the top of the casserole. Cover and cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly.

Step 8

Once cooking is complete, turn off the crock pot and let the casserole rest for 5-10 minutes.

Step 9

Garnish with chopped green onions, if desired, before serving.

Step 10

Serve hot and enjoy your Deluxe Potato Casserole!
