Crock Pot Bread

1 Tbsp yeast

1 Tbsp honey

1 cup warm water

2 ¾ cup all-purpose white flour

1 Tbsp white sugar

1 tsp salt

2 Tbsp olive oil

Other:

Parchment paper

3 paper towels

1. Mix together warm (not hot) water, yeast, and honey, and let sit for a minute for yeast to foam.
2. Stir together flour, sugar, salt, and then mix with yeast mixture and olive oil.
3. Stir together with a wooden spoon.
4. Knead for 5 minutes, either by hand or with a stand mixer and hook attachment.
5. Line a crock pot with parchment and place ball of dough in center
6. Put paper towels over the top, and put the lid very slightly ajar over that, this will help absorb some of the moisture so the top of your bread is not mushy and wet while the bottom is crispy and hard.
7. Cook on high for an hour and a half, or until bottom is browned (You can just lift it out with the parchment to check how brown the bottom is)
8. Remove from crock pot, put on a baking tray, and into a preheated oven set to broil on high. Broil 2-3 min or until you reach the desired golden brown.
