Bread in a crock pot?

I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't tried it myself! Although I wasn't crazy about the texture, I did count it as a success. I used a standard white bread recipe, let it rise one time, and put it in a greased oval crock pot on high for about 2 hours.

I have read that it works better in a loaf pan set in the crock pot and cooked but I wanted to try to cook it without any additional dishes.

The bread was moist and a bit dense in texture. It reminded my husband and myself of cornbread.

I might experiment with this again.
