    Crock Pot Artichoke Dip is one of the easiest crock pot appetizers. It’s rich and flavorful with little time spent on prep. Consider making this for guests or even taking it with you to a get-together. I promise that there won’t be any leftovers! This is by far the best artichoke dip I’ve ever made.

    I enjoy the mild taste of artichokes, which pairs well with the sharp parmesan and the brightness of the green chiles. Each ingredient provides a tremendous amount of flavor, so there’s no need to add any seasonings.

    Why You’ll Love This Crock Pot Artichoke Dip Recipe

    • Easy hot appetizer: There’s minimal work in preparing this cheesy hot artichoke dip recipe.
    • Budget-friendly: The ingredients in this recipe are affordable for even the smallest budget.
    • Crowd favorite: I have yet to find anyone who can resist the rich and savory flavors of this artichoke dip.

    Ingredients

    Ingredients for artichoke dip before it has been put in the crock pot.

    You only need 6 ingredients to make this savory and rich artichoke dip. These components are easy to find and won’t cost you a fortune. I like to store extra artichokes and green chiles in my pantry in case I get a craving!

    • Mayonnaise: This adds fat and creaminess to the base of the dip. I also love the slightly tangy flavor it adds as well.
    • Cream cheese: The flavor of cream cheese goes great with the mayo and artichokes. It also helps to thicken the dip so it has the perfect consistency.
    • Parmesan cheese: I add parmesan to the dip and melt it on top. Parmesan is sharp and salty, so it adds tons of flavor.
    • Artichokes: I typically drain a can of artichokes and chop them into bite-sized pieces, but you can use a jarred variety if you prefer.
    • Green chiles: I chose mild diced green chiles, which add acidity but not too much heat.
    • Onion: Finely diced onion adds texture and a subtle sweetness, which balances the other ingredients.

    See the recipe card below for exact ingredient amounts, nutritional information, and detailed instructions.

    Variations

    • Bacon cheddar: Add cooked chopped bacon and shredded cheddar cheese for an extra savory version.
    • Jalapeno: Use diced jalapenos instead of green chiles to turn up the spice level.
    • Sun-dried tomato: Try this recipe with chopped sundried tomatoes for sweetness and acidity.

    How to Make Artichoke Dip in the Crock Pot

    Before you get started, I recommend spraying the pot of your slow cooker with non-stick cooking spray. You can also use a crock pot liner, which heavily reduces clean-up time. 

    Wet ingredients mixed together in a clear bowl.

    Step 1: Mix creamy ingredients. In a medium bowl, mix mayo, cream cheese, and 1 cup of parmesan. Ensure everything is well combined.

    Artichokes, onion, and green chilies mixed into wet ingredients.

    Step 2: Add remaining ingredients. Add the artichokes, green chiles, and onion. Stir the mixture well.

    Step 3: Transfer to the crock pot. Pour the dip mixture into the crock pot and sprinkle it with more parmesan cheese.

    Step 4: Cook. Cover and cook on high for 1-1 ½ hours until hot and the cheese on top is melted. Enjoy with your favorite dippers!

    Hint: Use softened cream cheese.

    Allowing the cream cheese to soften makes it easier to stir into the other ingredients and ensures it's evenly mixed throughout the dip.

    Storage Directions 

    • Refrigeration: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
    • Reheating: Reheat this easy artichoke dip in the microwave, or return it to the slow cooker on low. Just heat it until warm!
    • Freezing: Cool the dip completely, and transfer it to a freezer-safe container. Freeze for up to 3 months, and thaw in the refrigerator before warming it up.
    • Make Ahead: Prepare the dip and transfer it to the crock pot. Then, cover and store it in the refrigerator for up to 24 hours before you need to make it.

    Serving Suggestions

    • Serve this artichoke dip with tortilla chips, crackers, carrots, and celery sticks, or spread some on this slow cooker focaccia.
    • Spoon some dip on crock pot chicken nachos for a creative twist.
    • Make a spread of tasty crock pot appetizers and include crock pot kielbasa bites, slow cooker chicken wings, and honey garlic meatballs.

    Expert Tips

    • Chop the artichokes well: Most canned varieties of artichoke hearts come halved or quartered, so you’ll need to chop them into bite-sized pieces
    • Set the pot to warm: When ready to serve, set your crock pot to the warm setting so the dip doesn’t get cold.
    • Use Greek yogurt: Try Greek yogurt instead of mayonnaise for a lighter version.

    Recipe FAQs

    Can I set the crock pot to low heat?

    Yes! Cook the artichoke dip for 2-3 hours on low heat.

    Why is my dip so thick?

    If you prefer a thinner dip, stir in a splash of milk just before it finishes cooking.

    Can I use fresh artichokes?

    Sure! Keep in mind that you must clean, trim, and boil the artichokes before chopping and adding them to the dip. That’s why I love the convenience of canned or jarred artichokes.
