Slow Cooker Roasted Potatoes Recipe: FAQs

➡️ Prepackaged Parmesan cheese, or fresh?

I recommend fresh with this, but the prepackaged stuff won’t do bad either!

➡️ Can you double this recipe?

Why, of course!! In fact, I recommend it. Triple it. Quadruple it. Eat it all! It’s that good! 😉 I only advise you to know your slow cooker’s limits, because a slow cooker with too much in it may not cook everything properly.

➡️ Unsalted or salted butter?

Whichever you prefer – but if you use salted butter, you may have to use less salt (or no salt at all) in the rest of the recipe.

➡️ Do you have add-in suggestions?

If you want, go ahead and experiment with … jalapeno peppers, red onions, carrots, or anything you like with potatoes! Just be aware that if you add a lot of wet ingredients (like wet vegetables), the potatoes may not turn out as crisp as you’d like, because they’ll absorb the moisture.

  1. Donna Bontempo says:

    I’ve attempted potatoes in the crockpot before but they never crisp up. Do these actually get crispy?

  2. Karyn says:

    Can these be heated in the slow cooker the next day, Planning for a potluck? Thanks

    1. Jamie says:

      I would cook them the day they are needed and switch the setting to keep warm.

      Although if you really wanted to cook them one day and reheat them to serve the next day, they would be ok, just not as crispy maybe from sitting in the fridge overnight.

  3. MJ says:

    Made these as a side to brisket. Because my oven was tied up for 6 hours at 275 degrees, it made sense to try this recipe. It was perfect and they were absolutely delicious. Thank you!

  4. Lisa says:

    Made these by pressure cooking for about 20 min (added a couple of water). Major hit at the pot luck. Great recipe.

  5. SeafoamJade says:

    Can I use a crockpot liner instead of spray? TIA!

    1. Jamie says:

      Sure! I love using liners when I can find them to make cleanup easier!

  6. Joan Rizal says:

    Can’t wait to try this for Easter! Thanks for posting!

  7. sigal says:

    I made the potatoes and it was really delicious

  8. JoAnn Wilson says:

    Can these be frozen after cooking them?

    1. Jamie says:

      Yes, you can freeze them after they’ve been cooked.

  9. Cheryl says:

    Could you do these in the oven too?

    1. Jamie says:

      Yes! I think they would be great that way!
