This crockpot recipe for Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Soup is hearty dinner idea for chilly nights. Serve with puff pastry breadsticks instead of pie crust!

Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Soup

Last spring, Christine and I met with one of my friends at a soup restaurant for dinner. One of the soups that they had on the menu was chicken pot pie soup. I had never heard of it, but since we love chicken pot pie, we decided to try the soup…and were disappointed.

We all agreed that a homemade version would be much better. With the cooler temps we’ve been having, it was the perfect time to try making it. The slow cooker chicken pot pie soup turned out great and I served it with thin, crispy puff pastry Italian breadsticks.

Cream of Chicken Soup Recipe

For this soup, you need a cream of chicken base. I decided to start with homemade cream of chicken soup, but you can use the store-bought, condensed cream of chicken soup instead.

Cut two pounds of boneless, skinless chicken breasts into cubes and place them in your crock pot.

Top with about 2 1/2 cups of frozen, mixed vegetables. Mine included carrots, peas, corn and beans.

Crock Pot Chicken Pot Pie

Although the soup will thicken a bit as it cools, you can thicken it more if you want using 1/2 cup of instant mashed potato flakes or by using cornstarch. To use cornstarch to thicken the soup, mix together 2 tablespoons of cornstarch and 3 tablespoons of cold water.

Stir the mixture into the chicken pot pie soup. Put the lid back on the crockpot and allow the soup to thicken for about 10 minutes. This method will only work if your soup is simmering or boiling slowly.

If your crockpot isn’t that hot, stir in instant mashed potato flakes, put the lid back on and allow the soup to thicken for a couple of minutes.

Ladle the soups into bowls. Add some puff pastry, Italian breadsticks or biscuits in place of the chicken pot pie crust.

I took my breadstick and broke it into pieces on top of my soup. Here is the recipe for Crispy Italian Breadsticks.

We really enjoyed this hearty meal! A bowl of hot slow cooker chicken pot pie soup is perfect for chilly fall and winter evenings.

    Would I still need to cook as long if I use precooked chicken? A lot of comments are about the potatoes needing a long time, but is it also for the chicken?

      Hi Kit,
      If your chicken is already cooked, you don’t have to worry about them. As far as the potatoes go, yes they take quite a while to cook on low. If you want to be able to cook the soup in less time since you have precooked chicken, put the potatoes in a microwave safe bowl and add enough water to just cover them. Cook them on high in the microwave for about 9 minutes. This will soften and precook the potatoes.
      Enjoy!

      Hi Renee,
      According to the labels, there is about 1 1/2 cup of cream of chicken soup in the 10.5 oz can of Campbells brand. In the family size can (22.6 oz) there are about 2 1/2 cups. So you would need one big can and one little can. Or 3 little cans.
      Enjoy!

    Hi. Are the instructions correct to run on high for 6 hours? If so, what would be the conversion using low?

      Yes, but I used an OLD slow cooker so it might take less time in a new one. Cooking on low would take 6-8 hours depending on your slow cooker.

    This is more like a crustless chicken pot pie rather than a soup, IMO. Mine was in the slow cooker for 7 hours, and the potatoes were still too firm despite the fact they were barely 1/2 inch thick. Overall, this was very tasty. I thought it was just a tad too salty, but the Mr. disagreed. If I were to make it again, I would omit the potatoes and make up the difference with peas & carrots and sautéed onions and celery. That’s what is so nice about this recipe; it is easily adaptable to suit your tastes. I opted to make your cream of chicken soup recipe, which I recommend if you have the time. If not, you can always make it a day or two ahead. This is definitely worth trying if you are on the fence about it.

    I did all the veggies chicken and potatoes and then cream of chicken soup and a cup of water, will all that be OK or do I still need to do the soup at the end? Or should it just be the soup already when done?

      You added two cans of cream of chicken soup and one cup of water? That’s all you need. The Homemade Cream of Chicken Soup recipe is for the ones that don’t want to used canned cream of chicken soup. Enjoy! ~Tonia
