Slow Cooker Creamy Corn Chowder


  • Author: Sophie Hart
  • Total Time: 335 minutes
  • Yield: 6 servings 1x

Description

Six bowls of slow-cooker corn, potato and cream chowder without chicken or bacon.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 cups Frozen sweet corn kernels
  • 1 pound Yukon Gold potatoes, diced small
  • 1 medium Yellow onion, diced
  • 2 ribs Celery ribs, diced
  • 2 cloves Garlic, minced
  • 3 cups Low-sodium vegetable broth
  • 1 teaspoon Dried thyme
  • 3/4 teaspoon Fine salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon Freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup Heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Add 4 cups frozen sweet corn, 1 lb small-diced Yukon Gold potatoes, one diced onion, two diced celery ribs, two minced garlic cloves, 3 cups low-sodium vegetable broth, 1 tsp dried thyme, 3/4 tsp salt and 1/4 tsp pepper to a 5- to 6-quart slow cooker. Stir and start cooking promptly.
  2. Cover and cook on LOW approximately five hours until the potatoes are tender when pierced. Mash about one cup of the cooked potato-corn mixture against the side or in a bowl, then stir it back to thicken without flour.
  3. Stir in 1 cup heavy cream, cover and cook approximately fifteen minutes more until the chowder is steaming hot throughout. Taste and adjust salt, recording any change.
  4. Divide into six working bowls and measure actual final volume after a kitchen trial. No chicken, bacon or seafood is included; those would change the recipe, images and handling notes.

Notes

Recipe-development draft; not kitchen-tested. Timing and yield are estimates. Nutrition has not been calculated.

Untested estimate: about five hours LOW for potato, then 15 minutes after cream; cooker and dice size vary.
