This is a really neat recipe and as easy as it is delicious.
I have learned to line the crockpot with greased wax paper to keep it from sticking.
I use whole wheat flour because I love the taste, and it is so much better for you.
If you overcook it, it will get dry. I think it depends on how hot your crockpot cooks. Mine does well with 2 and a half hours.
INGREDIENTS:
1 envelope (.25 ounce) of active dry yeast
1 tsp sugar
1/4 cup warm water
1 egg
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 cup lukewarm water
1/4 cup sugar
3 1/2 to 4 cups flour
DIRECTIONS:
In a bowl combine yeast, 1 tsp sugar, and 1/4 cup warm water. Allow yeast to foam, about 5 minutes.
Add egg, oil, lukewarm water, salt, 1/4 cup sugar, and 2 cups of flour. Beat with an electric mixer for 2 minutes on low.
With a wooden spoon, stir in remaining flour.
Place dough in greased 4-5 quart slow cooker. Cover and cook on high heat for 2-3 hours. Remove stoneware from cooker and let stand for 5 minutes before slicing.
My sister and I have 3 horses that we trail ride--a Morab, a Morgan and a Morgan mix. This blog is all about them. By the way, check out my two books "Trail Training for the Horse and Rider" and "Trail Horse Adventures and Advice. I also have the most adorable, loveable cat named Thunder. I call him a mini Maine Coon. He is the light of my life when things go wrong. He will always listen to me and try to comfort and cheer me up. He does a pretty good job of it, too.
Great minds travel parallel paths, evidently. Did you try it? How did it come out?
ReplyDeleteI am so glad you liked the bread. Yes, it is ridiculously easy--compared to the traditional way.
ReplyDeleteActually, I thought of gettinga bread making machine, but when I saw how much they cost, I couldn't bring myself to do it. This works perfect for me.
