Crock Pot Baked Potatoes

I had no idea that baked potatoes could be made in the crock pot! 
I love to have baked potatoes as a meal but never want to make it because it takes too long and sometimes the potatoes just don't cook that well in the oven. 
I will never use the oven again for baked potatoes!

What you will need: 

Medium to large russet potatoes
Toppings
Foil 
Crock pot 

Directions 

Scrub each potato clean and allow to dry. 

Using a fork, poke each potato a bunch of times on all sides. 

Wrap them in foil. 

Place in the crock pot on low for 8 hours or on high for 4 hours. 



Top with whatever you want. 
I topped mine with 1/4 cup low fat shredded cheddar cheese, tomatoes and some fat free sour cream. 
Delicious!

  3. I didn't know this was possible either. I am going to give this a try, probably tomorrow actually.
