33 Christmas Slow Cooker Recipes
Breakfast:
Don’t take time away from the family to cook on Christmas morning, let your slow cooker do the job for you! These breakfast recipes are hearty, delicious, and will smell so wonderful as your family cracks open their sleepy eyes.
1. French toast is a family favorite at my house and this crock pot french toast is moist, delicious and takes no time at all to prepare.
2. Or when we’re craving something with a little more pizzaz, this blueberry french toast does the trick.
3. I make this breakfast casserole year round, but there’s something about sitting down on Christmas morning to enjoy it with the family that makes it all the more special.
4. These cinnamon rolls are buttery, sweet and fill the air with Christmas spices.
5. After a long night of waiting for Santa, sometimes all I want is some toast and this cranberry apple butter.
6. This overnight apple oatmeal is like the apple pie of breakfast, and a perfectly delicious Christmas treat. We love ours with just a touch of cream…
7. For that relative who “just doesn’t do breakfast,” these bacon cheddar potatoes are a great compromise. The perfect side to eggs, or perfectly delicious all on their own.
8. Want a hearty breakfast that screams CHRISTMAS IS HERE! This egg nog cranberry steel cut oatmeal is exactly what you’ll be craving!
9. Littles are going to love this tater tot egg bake, and you’ll love not having to fight to get them to eat something before they go outside to play.
10. Want a healthier Christmas morning meal? This veggie omelette will give your family the warm tummies they need, and would look so pretty with red and green peppers.
11. This french vanilla french toast is a creamier version of our family favorite, and for Christmas morning I might just change up that one special ingredient…
Dessert:
Whether you’re going somewhere else on Christmas day, or staying home with the family, Christmas desserts are something everyone will love. Make these in your slow cooker so that you have them on hand (without having to spend all that time in the kitchen).
12. This delicious, creamy peanut butter fudge only takes a couple of minutes to prepare and will be wonderful to snack on all day long.
13. Set these candy cane peanut clusters out for Santa and who knows – maybe he’ll leave a little extra something in your stocking!

15. This caramel apple pie dip is a fun way to incorporate the delicious taste of apple pie without the calories of the whole pie.
16. A side of these slow cooker cinnamon apples at your Christmas dinner will give your family something to be grateful for.
17. Chocolate peanut clusters are a candy my family loves each Christmas, and something I can easily make with the kids.
18. Whether you make a figgy version or traditional, bread pudding is a staple of Christmas dining.
19. This slow cooker fudge is a fun gift for those last minute guests or for neighbors you’d love to surprise.

28. Give the littles something fun this Christmas with this snowman soup. Olaf would approve.
29. Traditional hot chocolate always hits the spot, and since it’s easy to whip up, it’s perfect for keeping the family mugs topped off all day long.

Thanks for sharing our Breakfast Casserole Recipe!
You’re welcome! We love you guys!
What a GREAT list of crockpot recipes!! I am always on the lookout for new recipes and these would work great for not only Christmas morning but any morning around here. We make crock pot meals by the month and freeze them. I will be referring back to this post frequently, thanks for sharing the amazing list!!
I am so glad it helped you out!
love the breakdown! Found so many recipes I want to try – good thing you could cook these year round! thanks for sharing!
I love the recipe list and no doubt will be putting some of them to use. But I had to laugh….I am the grandparent who always visits for the holidays. But, it has always been me in the kitchen on Christmas morning, preparing the breakfast that was at our house when my kids were small (cinnamon rolls, etc) and the one my daughter-in-law grew up with (tourtière). I love doing it and the grand kids will join me for a wee bit off and on. Later we will go to the other grandparents for a delicious, traditional Christmas dinner. The ‘other’ adults (ie the parents) do a lot of the prep for a drop-in Christmas Eve….after my husband and I finish the housecleaning! It takes a village, after all. I am sure most grandparents would love to help out, if they are made to feel comfortable doing it. No ‘entertaining’ required.
Thank you for including my French Toast!
of course!

I’ve tried to pin several of your posts, but when I do, I get the following message –
“You need to upload an image or provide the ‘image_url’ parameter” and it won’t post anything to my pinterest account. I’d like to save your stuff, but don’t know how to go about it if it won’t post to Pinterest.
Thank you.
