What reminds you of the Christmas season? For me, it is the smell of pine, Christmas decorations and desserts. Christmas is my favorite time of the year, and I prepare ALL year ’round for it so that it isn’t a stressful time of year!
I have a gift closet that I keep stocked with items that would be great to give as gifts. This is helpful all year long because there are birthday parties, and more that I need gifts for! Catching something on sale and setting it aside is a great way to have gifts ready and save money!
Gingerbread is a flavor that reminds me of the Holiday season! It is something that I love to bake and share with my friends and family. Gingerbread is just a delicious twist on a cake, and I am so excited to share this awesome slow cooker recipe with you.
My slow cooker along with my Instant Pot is one of my all time favorite kitchen appliances. I’ve been making dinners in my Instant Pot lately and love it. I also love to make desserts and love to bake. Did you know that you can bake in your slow cooker?
Your slow cooker will become your new favorite way to make gingerbread once you make this delicious recipe! It is going to become a family favorite, it is SO good!
Slow Cooker Gingerbread
Ingredients:
- 1 cup brown sugar
- ¾ cup molasses
- 2 stick butter
- 3 cups flour
- 1 tbsp cinnamon
- 2 eggs
- 1 ¼ cup milk
- 2 tsp baking soda
- ¾ cup butter
- 2 ¼ cup water
- ¾ cup brown sugar
Instructions:
In a microwaveable bowl, heat the brown sugar, butter and molasses until it is melted. Stir.
Add two eggs and whisk until fully incorporated.
Pour in the flour and spices and stir.
In a large measuring cup, microwave the milk for about 1 minute.
Whisk the baking soda into the warmed milk. Pour into the molasses mixture and combine.
Spray the slow cooker with baking spray or line with a slow cooker liner.
Pour into the slow cooker.
In the now empty microwaveable bowl, heat the butter, brown sugar and water until the butter melts. Stir until the brown sugar dissolves.
Pour over the cake mix in the slow cooker.
Put the lid on and cook on high and cook for 2 hours. The pudding cake will rise and the liquid will bake into the cake.
