    Crockpot Turkey Breast of Wonder is so scrumptious you won't believe that you cooked it in a slow cooker! It is so easy to make and everyone will think you spent hours preparing it.

    Turkey isn't just for November for my family we love to eat it all the time! Especially this recipe that couldn't be EASIER (5 minutes prep is all you need), moist, tender, delicious Turkey Breast of Wonder.

    Turkey isn't just for November for my family we love to eat it all the time! Especially this fabulous, couldn't be EASIER (5 minutes prep is all you need), moist, tender, shred-able, Crockpot Turkey Breast of Wonder.

    You could eat this with traditional Thanksgiving sides like we did (see photos) or you can serve with some mashed potatoes and a veggie. The marinade you pour over this delicious turkey is what makes it taste out of this world. After slow cooking the turkey all day you can make gravy with the juices and it is phenomenal!

    Turkey isn't just for November for my family we love to eat it all the time! Especially this recipe that couldn't be EASIER (5 minutes prep is all you need), moist, tender, delicious Turkey Breast of Wonder.

    Be sure to try this Turkey Breast of Wonder (Crockpot) recipe this November and I promise you will not be disappointed! I served Sweet Potato Casserole and Hash Brown Casserole along side the turkey and it was delish.

    • Mix the ingredients together and pour them over the top of the bird.

    • Then carve it (or shred it) up and enjoy.

    To Make the GRAVY:

    • Pour the juices from the crock pot through a strainer and into a medium sized sauce pan.
    • Mix 4 T of cornstarch into ½ cup of water.
    • Bring the juices to a boil and add the cornstarch/water mixture a little bit at a time, stirring constantly until you reach the consistency you want (you may not need all of the cornstarch/water).

    • Stir it well and let the soup heat through.

      wouldn't the cranberry sauce make the turkey sweet?

        I tried it my turkey was 183 degrees in only 5 hours. Maybe my crockpot temp is higher on low than others?

      Is there anything else you could use instead of the cream of mushroom soup?

        You could use any cream soup - cream of celery or cream of chicken.

      Do you think I could add whole cranberries instead or with the cranberry sauce?

      I did try this the last time I made Turkey Breast and it was so good! We did make a gravy out of the juices and a packet of turkey gravy. Then we made a version of poutine with homemade french fries that was out of this world. We didn't want it to seem like a thanksgiving meal so we were trying to make it a little more casual with the poutine and it actually made us think about doing this for thanksgiving....it's that good.

      Do you think it would be ok to cook on high for half the time?

      What if i wanted to do a bigger turkey? Would the amount of each ingredient change? Also what would you think of brining the turkey before putting it in the crockpot, and putting stuffing inside?

        You could use a bigger turkey but depending on how large I would consider doubling. I think bringing would be a fantastic idea! You could also put onions and celery inside for sure.

      Can you use chicken breasts instead of turkey? If you used 2 boneless, skinless chicken breasts, what would the time be to cook it?

        I would suggest that you use a whole chicken instead of just 2 breasts. Timing wise I would go with about 3 hours on low for 2 breasts.

      I made this for thanksgiving and it was fantastic. My husband and I don't eat pork, so we're thinking of doing this again for Easter, except using turkey tenderloins instead of a breast.

      If you wanted to roast it in the oven....could it still work and if so, what temp for the oven and how long? I have a turkey breast that is too big for my Crock-Pot. Thanks.

        Cook in the oven at 350°F for one hour and then begin checking the temperature. The turkey is done when it reaches 165°F in the thickest part of the breast meat. Start checking after 1 hour of roasting and continue checking every 10 to 15 minutes until the breast is cooked through.

        Only if your slow cooker is big enough. An 8 qt for sure.

      I've made this several times for our family, but now there are just 2 of us. If I use a smaller turkey breast (3 lbs) should I halve the other ingredients and/or cut the cooking time?
