White Wine Crock Pot Clam Chowder Recipe

White Wine Crock Pot Clam Chowder Recipe is one of my favorites to make!  Nothing beats a good bowl of clam chowder on a cold day. Being in the PNW I get the chance to harvest my own clams often and love how tasty fresh clams are.

Now I shared my White Wine Steamed Clams recipe -> here, now I love to make this with fresh clams but you could substitute canned clams and some wine to give it some flavor.  Even though I do grill and smoke food all year round sometimes there are the comfort foods like a warm chowder on a cold day, especially with working outside!

White Wine Crock Pot Clam Chowder Recipe Ingredients:

• Bacon
• Clams-Mine were stored in a white wine broth, but you can also use canned clams if you don’t have the fresh clam option.
• Red Onion
• Baking Potatoes
• Celery
• Baby Carrots
• Minced Garlic  

• Clam Juice
• Salt 
• Pepper
• Dried Thyme
• Old Bay Seasoning 
• Milk-Or heavy cream will work in this recipe well.
• Cornstarch
• Kernel Corn
• Red Pepper Flakes
• Bay Leaves

How To Make White Wine Crock Pot Clam Chowder:

We used an 8-quart crockpot to make this in, would you believe the old lady has 6 crackpots?? 

Prepare your veggies by chopping them up to go in the chowder.

Open the can of corn and strain out the liquid.

Put everything except the milk or heavy cream and cornstarch into the crockpot.

Cook on low for about 5 hours.

About half an hour before serving in a bowl mix together the cream and cornstarch.

Slowly stir in the cornstarch and cream mixture and allow to cook another half hour on low.

If you do not want cornstarch and milk, you can use a roux to thicken the chowder. Use equal parts butter and flour. Next, melt the butter in a saucepan or microwave. Slowly mix in the flour. Add this to the chowder to thicken it.

Serve and enjoy!

How To Store Leftover Crockpot Clam Chowder

Store in an air-tight container for up to three days. I don’t go longer than that since it is seafood.
