We have breakfast potlucks every other Sunday at our church. I wanted something that was different from the usual sausage/cheese/egg dishes. This was a huge hit and everyone wanted the recipe. It goes together quickly, and I made it the night before and refrigerated it. I popped it into the slow cooker, and it was done perfectly in 3 hours.

How To Make slow cooker potato ham and eggs

  • 1
    Beat the eggs well. Stir in the milk, and blend in the flour, salt and pepper. Set aside
  • 2
    Saute the onions until they are limp, but do not brown. Add to the milk & egg mixture.
  • 3
    Add the ham (I buy the 8 oz. packages of diced ham and use two of these). Stir in parsley; Add the Parmesan and 1 cup of the cheddar.
  • 4
    Mix in the defrosted potatoes, stirring well.
  • 5
    I like to use liners in my slow cooker. If you don't, be sure to grease the crock well before adding the mixture; Sprinkle the remaining cheddar over the top; add more parsley on top, if desired.
  • 6
    Cover, and cook on Low for 3 hours. The eggs should be set in the middle. You can test by inserting a knife into the middle. Every slow cooker is different, so check on this at about 2-1/2 hours.
