The best part is, you don't even need an oven to make this bread! That's right- you can make this incredible bread in your slow cooker, and let it cook to absolute perfection. So, get ready to fill your home with that bread aroma. Here's the recipe:

Ingredients:

- 3 cups of self-rising flour
- 2 cups greek yogurt
- 1/2 cup of bacon chunks (doesn't need to be cooked)
- 1/2 cup of your favorite shredded cheese
- garlic powder and dried parsley to taste

Notes: If you don't have bacon on hand, ham should work as well.

1. Combine the bacon chunks, parsley flakes, and garlic powder, ensuring they are thoroughly mixed. Set aside.

2. Mix the Greek yogurt and self-rising flour until they form a cohesive dough. Once it starts coming together, transfer it onto a floured surface and knead for a few minutes until all the flour is fully incorporated and the dough becomes smooth.

3. Line the slow cooker with a sheet of parchment paper and place the dough inside.

4. Sprinkle the shredded cheese and bacon mixture on top of the dough.

5. Cover the slow cooker with a lid, and to prevent excess moisture, place a tea towel under the lid. Cook on low heat for approximately 2.5 hours.

6. Remove the cooked dough from the slow cooker and place it under a broiler to lightly brown the top. This step is optional but will result in a crispy texture on the surface.
