Equipment

Ingredients

  • 6 medium russet potatoes scrubbed and dried
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt

Instructions

  • Place the potatoes evenly in a 6-quart slow cooker. Drizzle with the olive oil, sprinkle with salt, and toss to evenly coat the potatoes.
  • Cover and cook on high for 4-5 hours or low for 6-7, or until they are tender when pierced with a fork. The size of the sweet potatoes will determine the cook time. Start checking at 3 hours on high, and 6 on low.
  • To serve, carefully remove each potato with tongs, slice in half and add any desired toppings you prefer.

Notes

  • Nutrition information calculated for 1 potato without toppings.
