Herbed Crock Pot Bread Recipe

This Herbed Crock Pot Bread recipe uses bread flour, warm water, instant yeast, honey, olive oil, salt, sugar, and fresh thyme or rosemary to create a soft, elastic dough slowly cooked in a slow cooker. The method yields a rustic loaf with a tender crumb and subtle herbal aroma, finished with an optional broil to brown the crust.
