Follow Spend With Pennies on Pinterest for more great recipes! There is nothing more comforting than coming home to a hot bowl of soup after a long chilly day. This creamy Bacon Corn Chowder recipe is the perfect meal to warm you from the inside out! Adding all of the ingredients to the slow cooker means this Bacon Corn Chowder simmers all day in the crockpot for a meal that’s pretty much effortless. This savory soup is filled with bacon, chunks of tender potato, and sweet carrots, so it’s very satisfying.
Because it’s made in the slow cooker, this potato corn chowder recipe practically cooks itself. I sometimes prep all of the fresh ingredients in the evening and put it in the fridge. In the morning I just pop the whole thing in the slow cooker. (Make sure your potatoes are covered in broth so they don’t rust or brown). This creamy corn chowder recipe actually makes a HUGE batch batch in the slow cooker and it will last 3-4 days in the fridge so it’s a great way to cook once and eat a few times! We served it with fresh bread or homemade biscuits and a crisp garden salad for a complete meal. I make this recipe using canned or frozen corn for the sake of simplicity, if you happen to have fresh corn by all means, cut it off the cobb and use that!!
Because this recipe makes such a large batch you’ll want to make sure your slow cooker is at least 6QT. If it’s smaller, you can certainly half this recipe (the cook time in the slow cooker will remain the same). Due to the dairy in this soup I wouldn’t recommend freezing it once made. If you would like to freeze this soup, I would suggest removing the portion you’d like to freeze prior to adding the milk. To prepare, bring defrosted soup to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in cornstarch, evaporated milk and butter as directed. Allow to simmer on low about 5 minutes or until slightly thickened. © SpendWithPennies.com.
