I used a bit of a different amount of ingredients, water instead of milk, an egg, no sugar,,, but,, I didn't know cornbread could be done at all in a slow cooker,, and this is a basic cornbread recipe,, so I tried it,, and yummmm!!! And a couple of reviewers were encouraging that I could do it by just greasing the crock. The doneness was measured by the edges turning brown and pulling back from the pot, and the fork test. The top stayed yellow. It had that wonderful bit of crustiness on the edges that is gotten in a greased cast iron pot, and I love that! Thanks very much, for sharing the recipe, and for the helpful reviews. I'm going to be making this often! And it's great in the summer cuz it didn't heat up the kitchen! :))

This is very tasty and turned out quite well. I made mine a little differently -- no can. I used the usual slow cooker quick bread method (separate dish covered with foil, placed on a trivet in the crock and then poured hot water around the dish). Bread turned out HUGE and moist, so we'll have quite a few servings.

I have been using this site for a while but I felt the need to sign up in order to review this recipe. I am living in Japan and don't have an oven so you can imagine how happy I was when I found this recipe. I made the cornbread right in the crockpot which I sprayed with nonstick spray first. This recipe was great and even my girlfriend liked it, more than anything that I have made in my crockpot actually.
