How to Make Bread in a Crock Pot Easy Crockpot Bread Recipe Demonstration
Hello and welcome back to In the Kitchen with Matt, I am your host Matt Taylor, today I
got an excited little episode for you, I am going to show you how to bake bread in a crock
pot, what?
Yes a crockpot.
Let's get started.
All right first we need our bread dough, I have a couple of loaves here ready to go,
here is a short little video on how to make the bread dough.
All right I let these rise a second time, and now they are ready to be baked.
This one I am going to bake in the oven traditionally for 25 to 30 minutes, at 350 degrees F. And
this one we are going to bake in a crockpot, and then we are going to compare the two.
So what you do is you get yourself a large Crock Pot, and if you don't have a large crockpot,
what you can do is, put parchment paper in there, and then just put your dough right
in there, so it will resemble, it will resemble one of the round loaves, as opposed to the
sandwich loaf.
All right then we just put our dough right in there like that, ready to go, then we turn
it on high, we put the top on and then we let it bake for 2.5 to 3 hours.
Until it is nice and golden brown on top, all right time is up, let's go ahead and take
a look, ha ha, look at that.
Bread cooked in the crock pot.
All right now with oven mitts I am going to go ahead and come in here, grab my bread,
all right I am going to go ahead and take this loaf out of the bread pan here.
All right and then I am going to point out some differences right away, so the side there
got more crispy or more hard on the sides, this is the one that was in the crockpot,
this is the one that was baked normally in the oven, a little bit browner on the edges
here, nice little crust, a little bit softer, pretty cool, now look at the tops, as you
might expect this one looks like a normal loaf of bread, this one got these little ridges,
what you might expect from the steam inside of the crock pot cooking the top.
Now let's cut into them and see what we can see.
First let's start with our normal loaf, take my bread knife here and I am just going to
cut the end, look at the inside, it looks really good, it looks like you know how bread
should look.
Give this a little taste, mmm, now let's take our crockpot bread, same ingredients and everything,
same dough, cut off the end here, a little crispier on the edges, and a little bit different
texture on the inside, a little bit more brown, here is the difference, I probably could have
cooked this a little bit less time, that's pretty cool thought the difference.
Let's give it a taste, taste really good the outside crust is nice and hard the inside
is really soft, really cool.
All right our crock pot bread is done, it turned out amazing, now there are some differences
as I showed you, between this loaf and the loaf that was baked traditionally, in the
oven, the crockpot loaf has more crispy or crunchy edges around it, and it turned out
the color was just a bit different then the other one, but it still tastes really good,
so there you go, if you don't have an oven, or your oven is not working, make your bread
in a crockpot.
It is really easy to do, if I can do it you can do it.
