Crockpot Hashbrown Soup is a great recipe for cold days when you want something cozy to fill you up.
Jump to:
I love this hashbrown soup crock pot recipe (and slow cooker recipes like it) because it takes minimal effort. You only need five minutes of prep time!
My classic slow cooker potato soup use red potatoes, but the hashbrown potatoes in this recipe will save so much time over using fresh potatoes.
Our hearty soup recipe easily feeds six and is a good meal to make for potlucks during soup season.

🍲 Storage
To Store: Leftover Crockpot Hashbrown Soup should be stored in an airtight container in the fridge. (These are my favorite airtight containers.)
To Reheat: Microwave individual portions in 30-second intervals until heated throughout.
Because this soup recipe has a lot of dairy in it, I don't recommend freezing it.
📖 Variations
The first time you try any new recipe we recommend that you make it just as it is written on the recipe card since that is how the recipe has been tested. However, the next time you make our recipe, you might want to try one of these ideas:
- This creamy soup has a lot of flavor, but for a little bit of heat, consider adding a pinch or two of cayenne pepper.
- Instead of bacon, stir in chopped leftover ham or pulled chicken.
- For a vegetarian option, omit the bacon and use vegetable broth.
- Add a splash of heavy cream to the soup to add richness.
- Ranch seasoning adds great flavor to this creamy potato soup, but also consider trying it with Italian seasoning or even Mediterranean seasoning. It's also delicious with a pinch of basil salt.
- In this recipe, you can use any sort of cream soup you prefer including cream of chicken, cream of potato, cream of celery, etc. I like using my homemade cream soup when I have the time.
