Slow Cooker Herb Bread image

This bread recipe gets baked in your slow cooker. No heating up the kitchen with your oven! The recipe comes from Salton Multipot Slow Cooker and was found on www.canada.com. I've made this once so far. For my first time I omitted the herbs and substituted a cup of whole wheat flour for 1 cup of the all-purpose flour. I used the full 3 hours to "bake" it as the crock pot I used is an older one which seems to cook at a lower temperature than the newer crock pots. The top of the bread remains soft but the sides become crusty. Step 1 should read "without the crock" not with the crock. I've tried submitting a correction for this mistake.

Time 3h

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 cups lukewarm water, divided
1 (8 g) package active dry yeast
1 tablespoon sugar
2 teaspoons cornmeal
4 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, approximately
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried basil leaves
1/2 teaspoon salt

  • Make a well in the centre and add the yeast mixture, remaining water and oil.
  • Mix by hand until a ragged dough forms.
  • Knead the dough on a well-floured surface for 8 to 10 minutes or until smooth and elastic (add up to 3/4 cup additional flour as needed to prevent sticking).

I was disappointed with this bread. It was dry and bland. I won't be making it again.

I thought this bread was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.
