Hello and welcome back to you in the kitchen with Matt .
I am your host , Matt Taylor today .
I got an exciting little episode for you .
I'm gonna show you how to bake bread in a crock pot .
What ?
Yeah , a crock pot .
Uh Let's get started .
All right , first we need our bread dough .
I have a couple loaves here ready to go .
Here's a short little video on how to make the bread dough .
Alright , I let these rise a second time and now they're ready to be baked .
This one , I'm gonna bake in the oven traditionally um for 25 to 30 minutes at 350 F .
And this one , we are gonna bake in a crock pot and then we're gonna compare the two .
So what you do is you get yourself a large crock pot and if you don't have a large crock pot , what you can do is put parchment paper in there and then just put your dough right in there .
So it'll resemble , you know , it'll resemble one of the round loaves as opposed to the sandwich loaf .
All right .
And then we just put our dough right in there like that ready to go .
And then we turn it on high .
We put the top on and we let it bake for 2.5 to 3 hours until it's nice .
Golden brown on top .
Right time is up .
Let's go ahead and take a look .
Lift at that bread cook in the crock pot .
All right .
And now with oven mins , I'm gonna go ahead and come in here and grab my bread .
All right , I'm gonna go ahead and take this loaf out of the bread pan here .
It should come right out .
And now I'm gonna point out some differences .
Um right away .
So inside there it got more crispy or more hard on the sides .
This is the one that was in the crock pot .
This is the one that was baked , uh normally in the oven .
Um A little bit browner on the edges here .
Nice little crest , a little bit softer , pretty cool .
Now , look at the tops as you might expect .
You know , this looks like a normal loaf of bread and this one got these little bridges .
Um What you would expect from like the steam inside a crock pot um 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 night here and I'm just gonna cut the end .
Look at the inside looks really good .
It looks like , you know , red should look , give us a little taste .
Hm .
Now let's take our crockpot bread , same ingredients and everything .
Same dough cut off the end here , little crispier on the edges and a little bit different texture on the inside .
A little bit more brown .
Here's the difference .
I could have cooked this maybe a little bit less time .
That's pretty cool though .
The difference , let's give it a taste .
Tastes really good .
The outside crust is nice and hard .
The inside is uh really soft , really cool .
Alright , the crock Pott bread is done 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 .
Um The crock pot loaf has more crispy or crunchy edges around it and it , it turned out the color was just a little bit different than 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 crock pot .
Easy to do if I can do it , you can do it .
I'm Matt Taylor .
