Breads & Cakes : There are a few tricks to
remember when "baking" in one of these pots. First, turn the control to
HIGH (or to the setting which is equivalent to the HIGH used in the
recipes). The LOW setting is too low to give breads and cakes the texture
you expect. : With breads, remember to cover the container with a lid
or foil. Tie the lid or foil onto the container and place the container on
a meal rack or trivet inside the pot. If you don't have a metal rack or
trivet to fit your slow cooker, crumple foil and place it in the bottom of
the pot to support the baking container. Pour 2 cups of hot water around
the container to provide steam for cooking the bread. : When using a
deep fryer type of slow cooker, check frequently to make sure the water
hasn't evaporated. Add more water if needed. : In general, it is not a
good idea to remove the lid or foil from the bread container during the
first 2 hours of cooking. After that, check the bread by inserting a
toothpick in the mixture. If the toothpick comes out clean, the bread is
done. : When using a standard cake mix, the procedure is slightly
different. Cakes are "baked" in a pan set directly on the bottom of the
slow cooker, similar to the way you would do it in an oven. [You do???
--KL] : It is not necessary to use a trivet or water. Instead of
covering the uncooked cake mixture with foil or a lid, cover the top with
four or five layers of paper towels. Because there is more mosture in a
slow cooker than in an oven, it is necessary to compensate for this with
the paper towels to help absorb the moist top of the cake mix. Also, leave
the lid of your slow cooker slightly open to let extra moisture escape. :
The type and kind of container to use for breads and cakes will depend on
the size of your pot. The following containers hold equivalent amounts of
batter, and so will substitute for each other: Coffee can, 2 lb
two coffee cans, 1 lb Mole, 6-7 cup capacity baking dish, 1 1/2
quart Three vegetable cans, 16 oz Souffle dishes and springform pans
also work, when they fit in the pot. Source: Crockery Cookery, by

1 c Flour
1 1/2 ts Baking powder
1 t Pumpkin pie spice
1/2 c Brown sugar -- firmly packed
2 tb Vegetable oil
2 Eggs
1/2 c Pumpkin (canned)
4 tb Raisins or dried currants -- f
Recipe by: Better Homes and Gardens New Crockery Cooker In small bowl
combine flour, baking powder and pumpkin pie spice; set aside. In med.
mixing bowl combine brown sugar and oil; beat till well combined. Beat in
eggs. Add pumpkin; mix well. Add flour mixture. Beat just until combined.
Stir in raisins. Pour pumpkin mixture into 2 well-greased and floured
1/2-pint straight-sided canning jars. Cover jars tightly w/greased foil.
Place a piece of crumpled foil in 3-1/2 or 4 qt. crockery cooker with
liner in place. Place jars atop crumpled foil. Cover; cook on high
setting for 1-1/2 to 1-3/4 hours or until a wooden toothpick inserted near
centers comes out clean. Remove jars from cooker; cool 10 minutes in
jars. Remove bread from jars. Cool thoroughly on wire rack. Makes 2
loaves. FOR 3-1/2 to 4 QUART CROCKPOTS--Halve all ingredients.
WARNING: Use only CANNING JARS for this recipe. Others may not be tempered
to withstand the heat. Do NOT use coffee or vegetable cans as most
contain lead and are painted or sealed with materials that may give off
toxic gases when heated. This recipe doesn't say you can seal them up
and store them in your pantry but my Kerr Canning book recipe says you
can; here's how: Remove jars from the oven one at a time, wipe rim of
jar clean; put on lid and ring and screw on tightly. Jars will seal
as the cake cools. Store like canned goods. If you'll be giving these
as gifts, take a piece of decorative cloth (about 1-inch larger in
circumference than the lid or as large as you'd like) and put it on top of
the lid, then screw on the ring. Make sure you screw the lid on very
tightly. I like to use pinking shears to cut the cloth out with.
