How to Make Low Carb Strawberry Shortcake in a Slow Cooker
Cris here.
Ever since I shared our Low Carb Air Fryer Strawberry Shortcake, I have been meaning to get the crock pot version on the site.
I make this basic recipe all the time when we have family or friends over for dinner. I have made it in the air fryer, oven and in the crock pot. And, truth be told… a lot like our Low Carb Coffee Cake, I prefer the texture of this shortcake when I make in in the slow cooker. I love how the crock pot keeps the cake fluffy and moist.
Notes on Crock Pot Low Carb Strawberry Shortcake
- For best results, prepare strawberries the day before and refrigerate to release juices. This is not absolutely necessary but it does produce the most strawberry juice for the shortcake.
- You can make this shortcake with any 6 quart slow cooker. Cooking times will vary greatly depending on how your slow cooker cooks.
- We used CarbQuik in our shortcake dough to cut the carbs in this dish.
- Confectioner’s Sugar Substitute is a key ingredient in this dish to help add sweetness without adding a gritty texture.
- If you are not interested in low carb, you can use Bisquick’s shortcake recipe and make it into crock pot shortcake instead.
- Looking for more recipes? Our Recipe Finder can help you find exactly what you need.
- Check out all our favorite recommendations for cookbooks, slow cookers and low carb essentials in our Amazon Influencer Shop.
- As with any of our recipes, carb counts, calorie counts and nutritional information varies greatly. As a result, your nutritional content depends on which products you choose to use when cooking this dish. The auto-calculation is just an automated estimate and should NOT be used for specific dietary needs.
- Cooking times are always a basic guideline. Recipes should always be tested first in your own slow cooker and time adjusted as needed.
