Beer Bread in a Crock: A Delicious Gift Idea!

[ChefJeniLobdell]

I have two stoneware crocks that I received in my surprise boxes. I would like to put them together with a box of our Beer Bread mix as a gift.

Does anyone know if the beer bread can be made in the crocks? If so, how to bake?

Any help is greatly appreciated!!

Anybody???

Didn't they come with use and care cards?

 

[ChefJeniLobdell]

Yes. But there is no information on it about making the beer bread in the crock. The beer bread box states it can be made in the stoneware loaf pan or a 5x9 metal loaf pan. I measured the crock and it is 4 x 6. I am not sure if the bread will bake properly in it.

Sorry, I have a crock that I've never used, I would be interested to know if it would work too......

Yes. You can make the beer bread in the crock. In fact for a while they had a gift set with a crock and a pouch of the beer bread mix (1/2 the box).

Make the bread according to directions on the box.

Hi there! As a fellow Pampered Chef consultant, I can definitely help you with your question. Yes, you can absolutely make our Beer Bread mix in your stoneware crocks. They are actually perfect for baking bread in because they distribute heat evenly and help create a crispy crust. To bake the bread, preheat your oven to 375 degrees and lightly grease the inside of the crocks with butter or cooking spray. Prepare the Beer Bread mix according to the package instructions and then pour the batter into the crocks, filling them about 3/4 of the way full. Bake for about 45-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the bread cool in the crocks for a few minutes before removing them and slicing. Your gift recipients are going to love this delicious and unique gift idea! Happy baking! :chef:
