If anyone does not know, Easter cake is ritual bread, which must certainly be lush, sweet and rich. It is not easy to cook it, but we will definitely cope with all the difficulties! Now we will analyze how to bake an Easter cake in a slow cooker quickly and easily. True, there is one small snag in this case. If you prefer a tall narrow cake, then in this case it is advisable to consider the recipe for Easter cake in a bread machine or in the oven. It's no secret that in a slow cooker, Easter bread will turn out to be quite low. Indeed, if you put a lot of dough, then although it will rise, it will not be completely baked. And if, on the contrary, put a little dough, then it will be baked, but the cake will turn out low. But, on the other hand, why does the Easter cake have to be high? If you are not afraid of its shape, then we begin to prepare Easter cake. The recipe in the slow cooker is quite simple, every housewife is simply obliged to familiarize herself with it.

We put our miracle technique in the "Heating" mode for 20 minutes, then turn it off, and leave the dough for another hour so that it finally rises. Next, bake the Easter cake in the slow cooker in the "Baking" mode. Since this mode usually works for an hour, we add another half an hour to the baking time for bread.
