First, I made the batter. Since I wasn't sure how it was going to turn out, I used a mix. Also because Babyface and I finished the last of the bananas this morning when we had Healthy Cookies with peanut butter for breakfast.
I generously sprayed the bread pan with cooking spray. I used this metal tin since my glass bread pan didn't fit in the slow cooker (the handles made it too long). Then I poured the batter into the bread pan.
I put the bread pan into the slow cooker. No foil balls, no covering the top, no water, no nothing. I propped the lid open a little with the help of a chopstick.
The bread baked on high for 3 hours. My house smelled really good. With the lid not on tightly, it did produce some heat in the kitchen. Probably less than a quarter of what my oven produces. Next time, I will do this on the porch since I don't care if it gets hot out there.
The knife test came out clean. I took the bread pan out of the slow cooker and let it cool. I used the Ove Glove in the picture above (yes, I saw it on TV and it's great) after almost grabbing the pan with my bare hand. The bread looks a bit light in the photos but it turned out a nice, golden color.
After it cooled, I sliced it up and took it to a social gathering. It received rave reviews.
