30 Slow-Cooker Breads That Honestly Kind of Blow My Mind
I’m no stranger to a Crock-Pot, but I’m pretty new to the world of slow-cooker bread recipes. I’ve had my slow-cooker for years, and I use it regularly it for everything from braised meats to root vegetable soups to weekly batches of chicken stock…the list goes on. But “baking” in the slow-cooker? That’s something I never thought to try—until recently, that is.
Like most people, I love bread. Eating bread, that is. It’s never been my friend in terms of baking it from scratch. Quick breads like banana bread, pumpkin bread and cornbread are easy enough, but I can never quite get the yeasted stuff to come out right, so I’d all but given up on the idea of making breads at home. Then, someone suggested I try my luck with slow-cooker breads, and everything changed. Suddenly, my yeast-related struggles were over, and I found myself looking up as many slow-cooker bread recipes as I could find, excited to try (and succeed at) them all. I won’t lie, I was also pretty excited to have an excuse to eat lots of bread.
From my trial and error, I’ve certainly acquired a few favorite recipes. The below 30 slow-cooker bread recipes range from sweet quick breads to savory yeasted breads, so you’re bound to find whatever it is you’re looking for. The process of making each one is a little different, but all are a little more foolproof thanks to the slow-cooker cooking method. If you’re skeptical, go ahead and give one a try—I bet you’ll become a fan.
