Pillsbury Bread

Casual dinner with friends was last night. They made a seafood stew.  This Vegetarian Slow Cooker arrived with the Rival Double Crock filled with two experimental items.  The first, a crock filled with bread from the Pillsbury Dough case.  The second a  Black Forrest Dump Cake for dessert.  

The bread could not have been simpler to prepare. Open can of dough, shape into a semi circle, and place in the crock to cook.  The dessert was much more complicated.  It took  2 minutes to assemble in the other half of the Rival double crock.

Winner, Loser or, Meh

This was pretty darn good, but not crusty on top.  I didn't expect it to get crusty on top, but it sure tasted good anyway and it was all gone within a few minutes. The bottom got a bit over browned, which tends to happen sometimes with black crockery.

Photos were taken with friend's camera of the bread semi ring.  They were not immediately uploaded to the computer and were accidentally wiped from the camera by the next day, so there is no picture of the finished product.  I will make this again and add a photo the next time.

Recipe

I used a 2 1/2 quart crock pot for this.

Ingredient:

• 1  tube Pillsbury Crusty French Bread Dough

Preheat crock to high.  Open tube of dough and bend into semi circle to fit crock.  Score top of dough with a few slits.  Place a dishtowel or paper towels over the top rim of the crock. Cover.  Pull edges of the towel in to the center.  The towel will serve as a moisture wick for better product texture.Cook on high for 2 - 2 1/2 hours.  If you will be gone during the day, you can put the dough in a cool crock pot and use a lamp timer to turn on while you are away.
