Equipment

  • Crockpot I like the Instant Pot Dutch Oven

Ingredients

  • 3 tablespoons butter plus more for greasing the crockpot
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 ½ cups heavy cream
  • 1 cup vegetable broth or chicken broth
  • 8 ounces gruyere cheese shredded
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 teaspoon sea salt plus more for the potatoes
  • ½ teaspoon fresh ground pepper plus more for the potatoes
  • 3 pounds russet potatoes peeled and cut ⅛ inch thick
  • 1 cup parmesan cheese

Instructions

  • Melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
  • Add the flour and cook for 3 minutes.
  • Whisk in the heavy cream and broth. Bring to a simmer, and cook for 7 minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low, and add the gruyere cheese. Cook until the cheese melts.
  • Add the garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Remove from the heat.
  • Grease your slow cooker bottom and sides with butter.
  • Arrange a layer of the potatoes in the bottom of the slow cooker and season with salt and pepper.
  • Continue layering the potatoes until you have used them all.
  • Pour the sauce over the potatoes in an even layer.
  • Cover and cook on high for 4 hours, until the potatoes are tender.
  • Top with the parmesan and recover until the cheese melts.
  • Allow to rest for 15 minutes before serving.

Notes

Storage

You can store leftover potatoes in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. 
I like to reheat them in the microwave or the oven, but you could also heat them in a saucepan over low heat until warm.

Freezing

Let the potatoes cool completely, then transfer them to a freezer-safe container and store them in the freezer for up to 3 months. 
You can expect the sauce to be broken, but the flavor will still be good.
When ready to eat, thaw in the fridge overnight and reheat in the microwave or a saucepan over low heat until warm.
