20 Delicious Slow Cooker Garlic Herb Turkey Breast

There’s something so comforting about cooking a turkey breast in the slow cooker, especially when it’s infused with garlic, herbs, and all those cozy flavors that make the whole house smell amazing. This Slow Cooker Garlic Herb Turkey Breast has become one of my favorite hands-off meals because it always comes out tender, juicy, and full of rich, savory flavor without any stress or complicated steps. I love that I can just season the turkey, place it in the slow cooker, and let it gently cook until it’s perfectly moist and flavorful.

What makes this recipe even better is how versatile it is. It works beautifully for weeknight dinners, meal prep, or even smaller holiday gatherings when you don’t need a whole turkey. The herbs soak into the meat so well, and the slow cooking keeps everything incredibly tender.

It’s simple, comforting, and consistently delicious—exactly the kind of easy recipe I love coming back to.

FAQ

How long should I cook the turkey in the slow cooker?

Typically 6–7 hours on low or 3–4 hours on high, depending on the size of your turkey breast.

Do I need to brown the turkey before adding it to the slow cooker?

No, it’s optional. Browning adds extra flavor, but the turkey will still taste delicious without this step.

Can I add vegetables to cook with the turkey?

Absolutely! Potatoes, carrots, onions, and celery cook well and soak up the garlic-herb flavor beautifully.
