Hello there, Slow Cooker Chicken Pot Pie Soup!
It’s so nice to see the slow cooker/crock pot back on the counter again. As the weather is beginning to cool down, it’s time to bring back all your favorite Fall comfort foods.
This chicken pot pie soup is a perfect transitional soup into the cooler weather. It’s not too heavy and feels light thanks to all the vegetables, yet it is cozy, comforting and totally satisfying.
Some other favorite soup recipes we’ve been enjoying as Fall is approaching is this Broccoli and Cauliflower Soup, Italian Wedding Soup, and Tomato Tortellini Soup.
The base of this soup is smooth, velvety, and creamy thanks to the organic cream of chicken soup used.
You’ll love that this soup is also loaded with vegetables like petite peas, potatoes, celery, and green beans. Basically, if you love the classic chicken pot pie, you’re going to love it in this soup form!
This soup recipe is:
- Quick and easy to prep. 20 minutes max of chopping!
- Perfect for meal prep for the week.
- Best served with a buttery, flaky biscuit on top (serves as the pie crust!)
- High in protein
- Vibrant and full of fresh veggies
- Low maintenance
- Loaded with flavor and freshness!
Ingredient Notes
For the ingredient measurements and entire recipe, be sure to scroll down to the bottom of the blog post where the recipe card is located.
- Chicken: I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts.
- Veggies: frozen or fresh corn, peas, celery, onion, carrots, potatoes, and green beans! Feel free to add more or less of a certain vegetable based on your preferences.
- Chicken broth: Feel free to use vegetable broth if needed.
- Poultry seasoning: adding poultry seasoning is a simple way to add depth to a soup and it gives it an aromatic, woodsy flavor that is just so comforting.
- Chicken bouillon base: I love adding the Better Than Bouillon chicken base to soups to give the broth a more rich and robust flavor.
- Apple Cider Vinegar: adding an acid, like apple cider vinegar (or you can use lemon juice) brightens up the flavors of the soup especially in long-simmered soups like this slow cooker chicken pot pie soup. It’s amazing how the soup comes to life with just a little apple cider vinegar!
- Biscuits: 1 tube of refrigerated biscuit dough or you can try my homemade biscuits!
Step by Step directions:

- Prep: chop the onion, dice the carrots, celery, potatoes, and trim the green beans and chop into 1 inch pieces.
- To the slow cooker, add the chicken, all of the vegetables, garlic, chicken bouillon base, cream of chicken soup and seasonings. Stir.
- Cover and cook on low for 6-8 hours (Chicken should be cooked to an internal temperature of 165°F and potatoes should be fork tender).
- Remove the chicken breasts and shred with 2 forks, or use a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment to shred in seconds! (see video). Add chicken back into soup and stir.
- Bake biscuits according to package directions.
- Serve bowls of soup with a biscuit on top.
FAQ
How do I thicken my pot pie soup?
This soup is more brothy, instead of creamy. If you’d like it to be thicken and creamier, 20 minutes before you plan to serve whisk together 3 tablespoons cornstarch with ¾ cup heavy cream and slowly whisk into soup to combine. Allow to cook for ~20 minutes to thicken, then serve.
How do I reheat leftover soup?
I recommend reheating on the stove, and adding in more chicken broth to thin (or water) as necessary.
How long does this soup last?
Properly stored, this slow cooker chicken pot pie soup will last 3-4 days in the fridge and up to 4 months frozen.

i’m sorry, I forgot a photo! But, this is very yummy! my husband would even have it for leftovers! super easy too, dump it all in and enjoy your dinner.
So glad!! Thank you :):) yay!
This soup was so good and easy to make. I used frozen mixed vegetables for the corn, peas, green beans and carrots. Love, love, love!
I chose not to thicken this and it was perfect for the weather we’ve been having. I cut out some of the prep and used all frozen veggies.
This soup was delicious! It was very hearty and filling. Especially with a biscuit! I made mine in the instant pot. I sautรฉed the carrots, celery, and onions for a few minutes and then dumped the rest of the ingredients in and cooked with the soup setting. Very easy.
Amazing!! So happy to hear the Instant pot setting worked well, I bet that will be helpful for other readers, too!! Thank you!!
My husband gave this 5 stars and so do I! My toddler even tried some by dipping his biscuit in it. I loved that it was just a dump and go recipe – I even cut the veggies last night to get ahead and make today easier. This is probably the best soup Iโve made at home to date!
My family loved it. Served once with biscuits and leftovers with mini pie crusts.
Mini pie crusts, love that!! Thank you so much Janet!
Super easy and delicious! Just let it cook all day while I was at work. Perfect for the cooler weather.
Made a few changes to make it dairy-free. Just replaced the 2 cans of cream of chicken with 1 can of coconut milk. Loved it!
amazing! so glad the coconut milk worked out ๐ thank you!
Delish. Tastes just like pot pie but better. Easy too.
Thank you so much Barbara!! Glad you enjoyed it ๐ xo, Tawnie
