Step‑by‑Step Instructions
- Wash and peel the russet potatoes. Slice into thin rounds, about 1/8 inch thick.
- Melt the butter in a saucepan. Whisk in the flour and cook for 2 minutes until golden. Gradually whisk in the milk until thickened, about 5 minutes. Stir in the cheddar cheese until smooth.
- Spray the slow cooker and layer a third of the potatoes, pour a third of the cheese sauce, and repeat until all ingredients are used, finishing with cheese on top.
- Cover and cook on low for about 6 hours. Check for doneness 30 minutes before finishing, looking for bubbly and fork-tender texture.
- Serve warm and garnish with herbs if desired.

Notes
Slice potatoes evenly for the best texture and taste. Taste the cheese sauce before layering. Avoid overcrowding potatoes in the slow cooker.
