Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie

This easy slow cooker chicken pot pie is a cozy crockpot dinner that practically cooks itself. This is a family favorite meal, and I like making it because it's a dump-and-start recipe, and a dependable weeknight dinner.

If you’ve ever made chicken and dumplings, this is very similar, just a little richer and with more vegetables.

The potatoes give it a heartier feel, and the sauce has that classic chicken pot pie flavor without being heavy. It is super versatile as well.

Why We Love Easy Chicken Pot Pie in the Crockpot

  • Dump and Start Comfort Food – The slow cooker does the work, no pre-cooking or pie crust to deal with.
  • One-Pot Meal – Chicken, veggies, potatoes, and a creamy sauce all cook together in one crock (except biscuits in the oven).
  • Customizable – Use fresh or frozen veggies, rotisserie or leftover chicken, and your choice of biscuit or topping.
  • Family-Friendly – Classic flavors everyone loves, from picky eaters to hearty appetites.
  • Perfect for Busy Days – Prep takes minutes, just toss everything in and let it cook.
  • Freezer and Leftover-Friendly – The filling keeps well and reheats nicely for easy meals later.
  • Lots of Topping Options – Use canned biscuits, puff pastry, mashed potatoes, or even biscuit mix to make it your way.

Whether you’re making a cozy crock pot chicken pot pie from scratch or using shortcuts, there are plenty of ways to make it your own.

Topping Options for Crockpot Chicken Pot Pie

    Here are some easy and tasty ways to top your chicken pot pie:

  1. Oven-Baked Biscuits
    Bake canned biscuits (like Grands) while the filling cooks. Serve one biscuit per bowl.
  2. Slow Cooker Biscuits
    Place raw biscuit dough on top of the hot filling during the last 1–1½ hours on HIGH. Cover with a towel under the lid to catch moisture.
  3. Puff Pastry or Crescent Rolls
    Bake separately and serve on top for a flaky option.
  4. Mashed Potatoes
    Spread over the filling in a casserole dish and broil until browned.
  5. Homemade Biscuits
    Drop spoonfuls of biscuit dough onto the filling or bake separately.
  6. Bisquick or Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix
    • Bisquick: Mix 2 cups mix with ⅔ cup milk. Drop on filling and cook covered on HIGH for 30–40 minutes.
    • Cheddar Bay Mix: Bake as directed, then top each serving with a biscuit.
    Why are the methods different?
    Bisquick works well for cooking directly on the filling in the slow cooker, like dumplings. Red Lobster Cheddar Bay Biscuit Mix is best baked in the oven to keep its cheesy, garlicky flavor and crisp texture—slow cooking would make them soggy.
