Ingredients

• 4 cups potatoes, peeled and diced
• 2 cups corn (fresh, frozen, or canned and drained)
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 3 cups vegetable broth or chicken broth
• 1 cup milk or heavy cream
• 2 tablespoons butter

• 1 teaspoon salt (adjust to taste)
• ½ teaspoon black pepper
• ½ teaspoon garlic powder
• Optional toppings: bacon bits, shredded cheese, or chopped green onions

Instructions

1. Add the diced potatoes, corn, chopped onion, and broth to the crockpot.
2. Cover and cook on LOW for 6–7 hours or HIGH for 3–4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
3. In a small bowl, whisk the milk (or cream) with flour or cornstarch until smooth.
4. Stir the mixture into the crockpot along with the butter, salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
5. Cover and cook for another 20–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until thickened.
6. For a creamier texture, lightly mash some of the potatoes directly in the crockpot before serving.

Description

This Crockpot Corn & Potato Chowder is thick, creamy, and packed with comforting flavors.
The potatoes soften and break down slightly during cooking, naturally thickening the soup,
while the corn adds a touch of sweetness and texture. It’s rich without being heavy and perfect
as a main dish or hearty side.

Tips

• Use heavy cream instead of milk for extra richness.
• Add smoked paprika, thyme, or parsley for enhanced flavor.
• Mash fewer potatoes if you prefer a chunkier chowder.
• Serve with crusty bread or warm dinner rolls.

Correction

• If the chowder is too thin, mix 1 tablespoon cornstarch with 2 tablespoons cold milk and stir it in, then cook 15 more minutes.
• If too thick, add extra broth or milk gradually until the desired consistency is reached.
• Always taste before serving and adjust seasoning as needed.

Enjoy

Serve this warm and comforting Crockpot Corn & Potato Chowder with your favorite toppings and enjoy a satisfying,
homemade meal that’s perfect for chilly evenings or relaxed family dinners.
