Slow cooker bread cooking times vary. You may need to experiment a few times to get the perfect loaf. Start checking your bread at an hour. You’re looking for an internal temperature of 190 to 200F. If not done continue cooking checking for doneness every 20 minutes.

The top of the loaf won’t brown in the slow cooker. Pop it in the oven under broil for a few minutes to crisp up.
