We recently made a Crock Pot Banana Bread and undoubtedly when we “bake” something in the slow cooker I always get questions about why someone would want to make things in the slow cooker the could “more easily” be made in the oven. While there are MANY reasons readers love to use their slow cookers for such recipes (travel, energy savings, broken oven, etc.), there are also times when it just isn’t practical…like when mama wants some banana bread and now, it doesn’t make sense to wait an hour or two longer 😉
So we decided to convert the Crock Pot Banana Bread recipe we altered from Slow Cooker Fall Favorites into an oven recipe for convenience.
