Thank you to Hamilton Beach for sponsoring today’s recipe and giveaway. Your family is going to be requesting you to make this recipe for Potato and Corn Chowder over and over and over again…even in the summer!
Potato and Corn Chowder
Does your family love soup for dinner as much as mine? Potato and Corn Chowder is one of those soups that your family is going to be requesting again and again for dinner. And as an added bonus, it reheats nicely too if you have leftovers.
What I love most about this potato and corn chowder soup recipe is that it cooks in the slow cooker and was no work at all to put together.
Tips for Cooking Soup in a Slow Cooker
My family loves soup and I love that it’s an easy and economical meal. We had potato and corn chowder for dinner last night and there was just enough soup left over for my husband to take with him to work today.
- Sprinkle the potatoes and corn with the flour before you add the chicken broth. This will help thicken the soup as it cooks.
- Make sure you check the potatoes after they’ve been cooking for awhile in the slow cooker. The newer slow cookers tend to cook things really fast, so be careful. You definitely do not want the potatoes overcooked as you’ll end up with mashed potato soup.
- I always stir heavy cream into 1/2 cup of the hot soup in a small bowl then add to the hot soup to prevent the cream from curdling.

-
Place the potatoes and corn into your slow cooker. Stir in the flour and toss to combine.

Add the chicken stock and salt and pepper to taste.
-
Cover and cook on low 6 - 8 hours or 4 hours on high; until the potatoes are tender.

All slow cookers are different. Some cook really fast these days, so please check your potatoes after 2 hours or so of cooking to see if they are fork tender.
