Crockpot No-Knead Bread
Crockpot No-Knead Bread bakes up with a tender crumb and a gently crisp exterior, speckled with toasty sesame seeds for nutty aroma and bite. It’s pleasantly yeasty with a subtle saltiness, perfect for slathering with butter or pairing with soups. Serve warm for weeknight dinners, casual brunches, or anytime you want fresh bread without turning on the oven.

Stir 1 cup water and yeast together in a small bowl until the yeast dissolves. Let stand until frothy or foamy, about 10 minutes.
- 2
Mix flour and salt in a plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Add the yeast mixture and stir with a wooden spoon until evenly combined and no dry flour remains. Add 1 to 2 tablespoons water and stir again; the dough should feel tacky but not wet.
- 3
Cover the container with the lid. Let the dough rise at room temperature for 1 hour.
- 4
Set the slow cooker to High. Cut a piece of parchment paper to line the bottom of the slow cooker.
- 5
Lightly flour a clean work surface. Fold the dough briefly with floured hands to remove any air pockets. Shape it into a round or oval loaf to fit the shape of your slow cooker.
- 6
Sprinkle some of the sesame seeds on the bottom of the slow cooker. Sprinkle the remaining seeds generously all around the loaf. Place the dough in the slow cooker and cover with the lid.
- 7
Cook on High for 2 hours. Lift the lid a couple of times during cooking to release steam. An instant-read thermometer inserted deep into the loaf should register between 200 and 210 degrees F (93 to 99 degrees C). The surface should be dry and no longer spongy. Remove the loaf and tap the bottom; it should sound hollow.
- 8
Remove the loaf from the slow cooker. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool completely before slicing, at least 1 hour.

How easyChef Pro scores recipes and products
easyChef Pro analyzes up to 41 nutrients using data sourced from USDA and other verified food databases. Its scoring method uses the nutrients relevant to nutrition quality, calorie density, processing level, and your selected health goal. Recipes and food products get a health score from 0 to 100, calculated using consistent rules instead of being estimated by AI. The same nutrition data, serving size and health goal will produce the same result.
The calculation evaluates nutrients, calorie density, processing level, and how well the food supports your selected health goal. Protein, fiber, vitamins, minerals and other beneficial nutrients can strengthen the score. High amounts of sodium, saturated fat, added sugar and other nutrients may lower it.
Your health goal also matters. easyChef Pro evaluates recipes and products across six health areas and adjusts their importance for your selected goal. This means the same food may be a better fit for one health goal than another.
For recipes, changing an ingredient, quantity or serving size changes the nutrition and may change the score. Remix the recipe in easyChef Pro to calculate fresh nutrition and scores for the version you actually make. Product scores are based on the nutrition and serving information associated with that specific product.
