Donโt you love the smell of homemade bread?
Baking homemade bread has almost become a lost art since itโs so easy to pick up a loaf of โArtisanal breadโ at so many grocery stores, farmer markets, or specialty bakeries. But nothing beats that aroma of a freshly baked loaf.
Who doesnโt like walking into your house when the crockpot is going and that smell hitting you? Just a feeling of home.
Itโs really just a few steps.
Mix all the ingredients together and let rise.
Bake in your Crockpot with parchment paper
Remove from Crockpot and place under broiler
Slice and serve
Try to grow a few herbs
Rosemary is a favorite herb to use in cooking. Itโs one of the few things I seem to grow well especially since no green thumb is to be found. The aroma is just fabulous. And soothing. Have you ever grown your own? I have found by growing my own herbs, to also include Thyme, Parsley, and Cilantro, I use it more in cooking.

Notes
Fresh vs dried herbs
Dried are a little more potent in flavor so use about a 3 - 1 ratio.
1 Tbsp fresh = 1 tsp dried
A standard 5 - 6 quart oval Crockpot usually works best
Different types and sizes can cook a bit differently
Teach your family to cook
This would be a great recipe during this time of everyone being at home more. Maybe consider it a mini home-ec class with your kids.
