Try to keep the slices as even as possible for consistent cooking.Start the creamy sauce: Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 3 to 4 minutes until soft. Stir in the minced garlic and cook for another 30 seconds until fragrant.Build the roux: Sprinkle the flour into the pan and whisk continuously for 1 minute.Add the liquids: Slowly pour in the milk and heavy cream, whisking constantly to avoid any lumps. Cook for 3 to 5 minutes until the mixture is slightly thickened.Melt the cheese: Remove from heat and add the cheddar cheese, Parmesan, salt, pepper, paprika, and thyme. Stir until the cheeses melt completely and the sauce becomes perfectly smooth.Layer in the crockpot: Lightly grease the inside of your slow cooker. Add an even layer of sliced potatoes to the bottom. Pour some of the cheese sauce over the potato layer. Repeat these layers until all the potatoes and sauce are used.Cook: Cover and cook on LOW for 6 to 7 hours, or on HIGH for 3 to 4 hours. The potatoes are done when they are tender and easily pierced with a fork.Rest before serving: Turn off the slow cooker and let the dish sit uncovered for 10 to 15 minutes. The sauce will thicken beautifully as it cools slightly. Serve hot and enjoy!NotesPro-Tip: Do not skip the resting period at the very end! Letting the potatoes sit with the slow cooker off allows the starchy cheese sauce to set up and cling perfectly to every single slice.Share This Recipe!20sharesPinterestFacebook Easy Healthy Recipe, Family Meal Prep, healthy meal prepSimilar RecipesCrockpot RecipesOven Baked 3-Ingredient Chicken GloriaAugust 28, 2026Admin
