Notes
Cooking Tips:
For this recipe, I used a 6-quart slow cooker.
Keep an eye on your biscuits and check them before serving. Depending on your slow cooker it could take more time for them to cook through.
Common Questions:
Can I double this recipe: In my 6-quart slow cooker after the biscuits cooked it was pretty full and I would not have been able to double it. Can I skip the cream of chicken soup: I love the creamy flavor the soup gives this recipe. You instead can use a homemade version made with broth, cream, and flour. How to freeze this recipe: Once your recipe is fully cooked allow it to cool completely. Once cooled place it in a freezer-safe airtight container. Freeze for up to 3 months then place in the fridge to defrost overnight. Reheat on the stovetop and add more broth as needed.
