Step 6: Blend (Optional)

  • For a smoother soup, use an immersion blender to partially blend the potatoes, leaving some chunks for texture.
  • For a chunky soup, skip this step and leave the potatoes as they are.

Step 7: Serve and Garnish

  1. Ladle the soup into bowls.
  2. Sprinkle the remaining crispy bacon on top.
  3. Add shredded cheddar cheese if desired.
  4. Garnish with chopped green onions.

Tips for the Perfect Slow Cooker Potato Soup

  • Potato Choice: Russet or Yukon Gold potatoes work best for creamy texture.
  • Bacon Flavor: Don’t skip crisping the bacon—it adds a smoky depth.
  • Make Ahead: The soup can be prepared in advance and reheated; flavors improve overnight.
  • Variations: Add carrots or celery for more depth, or top with sour cream for extra richness.

The Slow Cooker Creamy Potato Bacon Soup is a hearty, flavorful, and comforting dish perfect for any season. With minimal hands-on time and maximum flavor, it’s a slow cooker favorite that the whole family will love.


If you want, I can also make a faster stovetop version that takes under 30 minutes but keeps all the creaminess and bacon flavor.

Do you want me to do that?
