Ingredients

6 medium russet potatoes
3 tablespoons butter, softened
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup water
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional: Sour cream, butter, crumbled bacon, minced chives, guacamole, shredded cheddar cheese and minced fresh cilantro

Directions

Scrub potatoes; pierce each several times with a fork. In a small bowl, mix butter and garlic. Rub potatoes with butter mixture. Wrap each tightly with a piece of foil.
Pour water into a 6-qt. slow cooker; add potatoes. Cook, covered, on low 8-10 hours or until tender. Season and top as desired.

Health Tip: Skip the high-calorie sour cream and try a dollop of fat-free Greek yogurt instead. (Don’t forget to add a sprinkle of chives.)

Test Kitchen tips

Serve the potatoes right in the foil packets to get the most out of the garlic butter.

This is an easy way to make potatoes for a baked potato bar at the office.
