Pioneer Woman Crockpot Green Bean Casserole

Pioneer Woman Crockpot Green Bean Casserole
Print Recipe

This crockpot dish combines green beans, cream of mushroom soup, melted cheese, and seasonings, all slow-cooked until creamy and tender. Topped with crispy onions, it delivers the familiar comforting taste you expect from the classic casserole — just prepared in a slow cooker instead of the oven.

Ingredients

Scale

  • 4 cups fresh green beans, trimmed and halved (or 3 cans drained / 1 lb frozen)

  • 2 cans (10.5 oz each) cream of mushroom soup

  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese

  • ½ cup milk

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

  • ½ teaspoon garlic powder

  • ½ teaspoon onion powder

  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper

  • 1½ cups French-fried onions (divided)

  • 2 tablespoons butter (optional, for richer flavor)

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the green beans

If using fresh beans, trim and cut them into 1–2 inch pieces. If using frozen beans, thaw slightly. If using canned beans, simply drain well.

Step 2: Mix the sauce

In a mixing bowl, combine cream of mushroom soup, milk, cheddar cheese, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, pepper, and melted butter. Stir until smooth and creamy.

Step 3: Add green beans to the crockpot

Place the beans into the slow cooker. Pour the sauce mixture over the top and stir to coat evenly.

Step 4: Add fried onions to cook inside

Sprinkle ½ cup of French-fried onions into the mixture. These soften during cooking and make the casserole richer.

Step 5: Cook the casserole

Cover and cook on Low for 4–5 hours or High for 2–3 hours, until the beans are fully tender and the sauce is hot and creamy.

Step 6: Finish with crispy onions

Before serving, sprinkle the remaining fried onions over the top. Cover for 5–10 minutes so they warm and crisp slightly.

Step 7: Serve warm

Keep the crockpot on the “Warm” setting to serve directly from the slow cooker during gatherings.
