I like to throw a few potatoes in the crockpot sometimes so that I can have a baked potato later on in the day.

Baked Potatoes in a Crockpot

Ingredients:

• 4-6 potatoes, scrubbed and dried
• 1-2 T. olive oil
• salt
• desired toppings (butter, cheese, sour cream, bacon bits, etc.)

Directions:

Prick the potatoes with a fork or knife several times.

Brush the potatoes with olive oil and sprinkle with salt.

Wrap tightly in foil.

Lay the potatoes into the bottom of a crockpot, cover, and cook on high for 4 1/2 – 5 hours, or on low for 7 1/2 – 8 hours until tender.
