Here is an old crock pot recipe I came across. Another nice little recipe
for bread buffs in general. When I made this recipe, I omitted the dates
and used chopped orange zest.
ORANGE PECAN BREAD
1/4 cup butter
1 cup sugar
1 egg
2 cups all purpose flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1 cup orange juice
1 cup chopped pitted dates
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Cream butter and sugar; beat in egg. Combine flour, baking powder,
salt and soda. Add dry ingredients to creamed mixture alternately
with orange juice. Blend until smooth. Add dates and nuts. Pour
batter into a greased/floured 2 pound coffee can. Place on a trivet
in the crockery pot. I used a canning jar lid. Cover can with 4 to
5 paper towels. Place crock pot lid on resting against a couple of
toothpicks or a prop on one side so the steam can escape. Cook on high
setting 300F, and allow 3 1/2 hours for a 3.5 quart crock pot or 4 hours
for the larger 4 1/2 quart crock pot, till the toothpick inserted into
the center comes out clean. Cool on a wire rack for 10 minutes. Remove
from can and cool.
Seems to me I just sprayed the can with pam.
