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.

Question: Have you tried elevating the pan from the bottom of the crockpot? Wondering if that would result in a less crispy texture on the bottom & sides. If I get a chance, I'll try it and post an update, but my wife and I are low carb dieting and she might hate me for it. LOL! Thanks again!
Thank you! 😎👍
Por of crock Link can’t be found on Amazon’s. What brand size Knobs etc.
Amazing. Thank you. AF the bread slices or AF for top.
Can you grill the loaf to make the top a little browner?? Great video by the way 🙏
now THAT is a great bread knife! definitely not a "Walmart special".
it doesn't work..:((
Where are The ingredients please
I actually prefer a crispier crust. Thanks I'm going to try this for sure.
Update: I made my flaxseed bread without sugar or oil last night in my crockpot and put water on the bottom of the crockpot and cooked it for 2.5 hours and the texture and taste was amazing. Taste like cake. I drizzled butter and honey on the top. The only prob was it wasn't brown at all on any sides, but was thinking nxt time I could use a creme Brule torch to give it a little color. But taste was omg amazing. Thank you again.
Thank you for this recipie.
I'm so excited as my condo does not have an oven. I think I would do less time as I don't like my bread too crispy. But definitely going to try.
OMG – bought smallish slow cooker that has a crock pot inner; haven't used the cooker yet – BUT your recipe for using it to make bread is wonderful. What a joy to be able to make bread at home. Thank you – I've subscribed to your you tube😃
Do you have a gluten free option?
This would be a great option, especially if your oven is broken or it is summer and you don't want to heat up the kitchen!
The crock pot bread outside crust sounded and looked too hard to eat.
How do you know when the pastry is done?
Why didn't you use the low setting on the crock-pot?
😁✌🏼👍🏼👌🏽
Could you tell me how long to cook a 7.5 x 3.5 loaf that traditionally would back 35 minutes at 350! No yeast. Its an almond flour recipe.
A flatter pan styled loaf, seated directly in the slow cooker for half the time of some waxed paper would have finished perfectly.
Can't wait to try this as our oven just broke! Should we heat the crockpot up before putting the bread in, or put the bread in and turn it to high?
Woo hoo I can still have homemade bread, even when its over 110 degrees outside, .i kive in tge central sanjouquin valley,ca.
Yours is the first comparison I've seen and its an important one. Thank you.
Love the idea, Matt I have the same crockpot 😀
loved this thank you! very informative and i liked that you cooked both styles and compared!
I would suggest place a towel over the crock pot before placing the lid on top. This will make for a softer bread.
It cooks in about 2 hours. I think you might have cooked it too long. I’ll try this. Thanks.
Too quick with ingredients, can’t look and write down quick enough
Can you make banana bread and place it in loaf pan then place inside crock pot?? Would it go on for low 4 hours or high??? Thank you 😊
Thank you! I never would have guessed that we could make bread in a Crock-Pot.
Traditional oven for bread please.
