Some of these recipes do call for soy sauce. While soy sauce has gluten in it, there are several gluten-free soy sauce products out there like Wholly Gangjang Gluten-Free Soy Sauce . They taste great and won’t change the recipe one bit. Most grocery stores also carry gluten-free soy sauce.

What type of slow cooker do I need?

Most of the recipes in this list are made with this 6 quart slow cooker. But any slow cooker will work. Just make sure not to fill it past the fill line!

Gluten-Free Crockpot Recipes (2024)

FAQs

Can I just throw a bunch of ingredients in the crockpot? ›

One of the main attractions for many people is the ease of a slow cooker, so when you're looking for recipes, avoid those that suggest a lot of pre-preparation. For many dishes, particularly soups and stews, you really can just throw all the ingredients in.

How to make good gluten-free food? ›

Cook from scratch: To avoid hidden gluten, use whole, fresh ingredients. Avoid "convenience" ingredients such as gravy mixes, soup mixes, bottled sauces, salad dressings, condiments, and seasoning mixes, since these may contain gluten-based ingredients. Check a list of gluten-free foods for safer ingredients.

Why are slow cooker meals watery? ›

But because there is no evaporation, the liquid isn't able to reduce and thicken naturally in a slow cooker, often resulting in watery sauces and loose gravies. The common solution? Using a thickener. But not just any old thickener will do.

How do you imitate a slow cooker? ›

In comparison, when using an oven as a slow cooker, you'll typically set the temperature between 325°F (similar to the low setting) and 375°F (resembling the high setting). Opt for a heavy, oven-safe pot with a tight-fitting lid, like a Staub or Le Creuset Dutch oven, to mimic the moisture retention of a slow cooker.

Is 4 hours on high the same as 8 hours on low in a slow cooker? ›

The difference between "High" and "Low" on slow cookers seems to differ with every brand and model. One thing that is consistent, though, is that food takes seven to eight hours to reach a simmer point (around 210°) on low; versus three to four hours on high.

What order do ingredients go in a slow cooker? ›

There's a method to food placement in your Crockpot slow cooker. The slowest cooking items should go on the bottom and then layer accordingly for the remaining ingredients. The top layer should be for any fresh herbs or slices of citrus.

How to go 100% gluten-free? ›

Choose naturally gluten-free grains and flours, including rice, corn, soy, potato, tapioca, sorghum, quinoa, millet, buckwheat, cassava, coconut, arrowroot, amaranth, teff, flax, chia, yucca, bean flours, and nut flours.

What happens if you don't put liquid in a slow cooker? ›

Not adding enough liquid can lead to burning.

"It's important to add enough liquid to ensure the bottom of your dish doesn't burn." If your meal does burn, the chef said to avoid scraping the bottom of the pot while stirring and serving because it can give the entire dish a burnt flavor.

Can you overdo a slow cooker? ›

Slow cookers are specially designed to cook food for long periods of time, but yes, you can still overcook in a slow cooker if something is left on the wrong setting for longer than it's supposed to be.

How do you make slow cooker meals taste better? ›

If you take an extra 10 minutes to sauté the aromatics before scraping them into the slow-cooker, the finished dish will have deeper flavor and better texture. (And some new slow-cookers allow you to sauté right in the insert, so you don't have to wash a separate skillet.)

Can you slow cook in an air fryer? ›

Yes, you can slow roast pork in an air fryer. In fact, it's a great way to cook pork because it results in tender, juicy meat with crispy crackling.

Does food taste different in a slow cooker? ›

It's More Tender and Flavorful

Aside from being juicier, slow-cooking makes meat a lot more tender and flavorful. The extra juices help to accomplish this but it's mainly the long-cooking time that brings out the richness of the meat.

Can you overload a slow cooker? ›

* When cooking meat, the water or stock level should almost cover the meat to ensure effective heat transfer. * Do not overload the crock pot. Half full is the design of most crock pots. * Do not leave cooked food to cool down in the pot.

Can you cook everything in a crockpot? ›

Most people use a slow cooker for meat, poultry and vegetables, although fruits, desserts, stuffing and oatmeal can also be prepared. All ingredients placed in a slow cooker should be thawed. Choose to make foods with high moisture content such as chili, soup, stew or spaghetti sauce.

What happens if you fill a slow cooker too full? ›

Overfilling the slow cooker can lead to uneven cooking.

On the other hand, not adding enough ingredients can also be a problem. "The crock should be at least 2/3 full to avoid dry or burnt food," Audet-White told BI.
