Slow Cooker Sweet Potatoes
Slow Cooker Sweet Potatoes are one of my favorite, no fuss sweet potato recipes! The best part is there’s only one ingredient with no prep time aside from washing them. No need to add water, poke them, or wrap them in foil. They’re a healthy side dish without the fuss! You can also air fryer baked sweet potatoes, and if you want to use your oven, try this Baked Sweet Potato recipe.
This recipe has zero prep time! I just wash them and throw them right in the slow cooker then turn it on low 8 hours, or if I have less time I cook it high 3 1/2 to 4 hours. You can put as many sweet potatoes as you like as long as they fit, just stack them and make sure the cover closes. You will know they are ready when a knife slides in easily when poked.

Can you put raw potatoes in a slow cooker? Yes, raw potatoes can go straight in the crockpot. They cook low and slow for eight hours, resulting in perfectly cooked sweet potatoes. Can you stack the sweet potatoes in the slow cooker? You can put as many sweet potatoes in the slow cooker that will fit. Just stack them on top of each other and make sure the lid closes. Can I bake sweet potatoes and regular potatoes at the same time in the slow cooker? Depending on the size of the potatoes, sweet and regular will take about the same amount of time to cook, so you can definitely do them at the same time. What if I don’t have eight hours for my sweet potatoes to cook? If you need the potatoes done in about half the time, cook them on high. However, you’ll need to add some water to the bottom of the slow cooker so it doesn’t burn. Start checking them at about three and a half hours – once you can slide a knife through them easily, they’re ready.
