If you don’t own a bread maker or access to a camp oven, this slow cooker bread is for you. Using a slow cooker or Dutch oven, you can make a cob loaf of bread.
Measure the flour into a bowl, then add the salt, sugar, and yeast. Mix together well.
Add the oil and water, then mix until the dough gets stiff and sticky. Continue to work the dough until it makes a ball.
Sprinkle a workbench with flour and continue to knead the dough for 5 to 6 minutes.
Line the slow cooker or Dutch oven with baking paper then add the dough. Slow Cooker: Turn on high and cook for 1 to 1 1/2 hours. Dutch oven: place in the hay box and leave for 2 to 3 hours.
When the bread has risen and is brown on the bottom, remove it from the slow cooker or Dutch oven.
Place the loaf of bread under the grill and brown, or if cooking in a Dutch oven then place fresh coals on the top to brown the bread.
