Frozen Bread In Crock Pot Recipes

SLOW COOKER BREAD

Steps:

• Butter a 6-by-3-inch round pan and set aside.
• Combine the butter, yeast, sugar, salt and 1 cup warm water in a stand mixer fitted with the dough hook attachment. With the mixer on low speed, add 1/2 cup of the flour at a time, waiting for each addition to be fully incorporated before adding more. Once all of the flour is added, knead on medium speed for 8 minutes.
• Transfer the dough to the prepared pan, transfer the pan to a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker and cover with the lid. Cook on high until the internal temperature of the bread registers 200 degrees F, about 2 hours. Let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a rack and let cool completely.

SLOW COOKER BREAD

Steps:

• Stir 1 cup water and yeast together in a small bowl until yeast is dissolved. Let sit until frothy or foamy, about 10 minutes.
• Mix flour and salt together in a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Add yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly combined and no traces of flour remain. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and stir again; dough should be tacky but not wet.
• Cover container with the lid. Let dough rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
• Set slow cooker to High. Cut a piece of parchment paper to line the bottom of your slow cooker.
• Dust a clean work surface with flour. Knead dough briefly with floured hands to get rid of any air pockets. Shape into a round or oval loaf depending on the shape of your slow cooker.
• Sprinkle some of the sesame seeds on the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle remaining seeds generously all around the loaf. Place dough in the slow cooker and cover with the lid.
• Cook on High for 2 hours. Lift the lid a couple of times during cooking to release the steam. An instant-read thermometer inserted deep into the loaf should read between 200 and 210 degrees F (93 to 99 degrees C). The surface of the bread should be dry and no longer spongy. Remove the loaf and tap the bottom; it should sound hollow.
• Remove loaf from the slow cooker. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before cutting, at least 1 hour.

OVERNIGHT SLOW COOKER BREAD

Steps:

• Place 3 1/2 cups flour, water, salt, and yeast in a large glass or ceramic bowl; mix by hand until just incorporated. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it on a thick kitchen towel on the counter. Let sit on the counter for 12 to 18 hours.
• Sprinkle a clean work surface with 2 tablespoons flour. Scrape the dough (it will be sticky) from the bowl onto the work surface. Stretch and fold the dough over several times, working in some of the flour. Shape into a round loaf.
• Place parchment paper inside a slow cooker, making sure to drape it up the sides. Place the dough in the center of the slow cooker, and trim off any parchment paper that hangs over the rim. Place a double layer of paper towels over the slow cooker and secure the lid.
• Cook on High without peeking for 2 hours. Remove bread to a cooling rack and allow to cool completely before slicing.
