Ingredients
  

  • 3 lb russet potatoes scrubbed, unpeeled, thinly sliced
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 6 tbsp salted butter cut into pieces, plus extra for greasing

Instructions
 

  • Grease the inside of the slow cooker with a small amount of butter.
  • Scrub potatoes well, dry them, and slice thin (about 1/8 to 1/4 inch).
  • Layer the sliced potatoes into the slow cooker, slightly overlapping.
  • Pour heavy cream evenly over the potatoes and dot with butter pieces.
  • Cover and cook on HIGH for 3–4 hours or LOW for 6–7 hours until fork-tender.
  • Gently stir the top layer and let sit on WARM for 10–15 minutes to thicken.
  • Season with salt and pepper just before serving.

Notes

No peeling required—leaving the skins adds texture and rustic charm. For extra flavor, you can add garlic, cheese, or herbs between layers.
