How to Make Slow Cooker Spinach Artichoke Dip

This section shows you how to make the recipe with step-by-step photos and instructions. For the full printable recipe, see the recipe card below. 

Since this recipe uses your slow cooker/crockpot to heat up the dip, the preparation process is very simple. Just follow these three quick steps to prepare your dip in a matter of minutes.

1. Prepare the spinach. First, remove the spinach from the freezer and allow it to thaw. I recommend letting it thaw in the fridge overnight you can thaw it at room temperature if you are in a hurry. After the spinach has thawed place it on a paper-towel-lined plate and cover the top of the spinach with another paper towel. Press down on the spinach to soak up the excess moisture. Continue this process with new towels until most of the liquid has been absorbed.

Recipe FAQ

What size slow cooker is best for this recipe?

A small 1.5 or 2 quart slow cooker is perfect for making–and serving–hot dips such as this one. That said, a larger slow cooker can be used but I would suggest transferring the dip to a smaller bowl for serving.

Can I use fresh spinach instead of frozen?

You sure can! Chop it up and add it to your crockpot like you would the frozen spinach.
