If you like loading your baked potatoes will all those delish dairy ingredients, then you'll love this soup recipe, too! Original recipe calls for only four slices of bacon, but I -- being a little piggy -- love the bacon, so we always use more like 8 to 12 slices. You decide which you prefer.

Tips for Making the Best Crock Pot Loaded Baked Potato Soup:

  • Use a good quality potato. Russet potatoes are the best choice for this soup, as they are starchy and will hold their shape well.
  • Don't overcook the potatoes. They should be tender but still have a little bite to them.
  • Use a flavorful broth. Chicken broth or beef broth are both good choices. You can also use a combination of the two.
  • Don't be afraid to add your own toppings. Some popular options include cheddar cheese, sour cream, bacon, and chives.
  • If you want a thicker soup, mash some of the potatoes before adding them to the soup.
  • To make the soup ahead of time, cook it according to the recipe and then let it cool completely. Store the soup in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. When you're ready to serve, reheat the soup over low heat until warmed through.

Conclusion:

Crock Pot Loaded Baked Potato Soup is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a cold winter day. It is also a great way to use up leftover potatoes. With its creamy texture and flavorful broth, this soup is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
