I have some to share so here you go,

Barbecued Pot Roast
Ingredients:
2 lb lean pot roast
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup tomato paste
24 peppercorns
1 small onion, chopped
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce

Instructions:
- Sprinkle salt over the roast and place in slow cooker.
- Spread tomato paste over meat; embed peppercorns into paste; top with onions and Worcestershire sauce.
- Cover and cook on LOW 8-10 hrs.
- Serve meat with accumulated gravy.

Slow Cooker Meatloaf
Ingredients:
1/2 cup whole milk
2 slices white bread
1 1/2 lb ground beef
2 eggs
1 small onion, peeled
1 1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp pepper
1 tsp dry mustard
1 can (12 oz.) whole tomatoes

Instructions:
- Place the milk and the bread in a large mixing bowl, and let stand until the bread has adsorbed all the milk.
- With two forks, break the bread into crumbs.
- Beat the ground beef into the crumbs until well mixed.
- Make a hollow in the center of the meat and break the eggs into it.
- Beat the eggs a little; then grate the onions into the eggs. Add salt, pepper and mustard.
- Beat the eggs into the beef.
- Shape into a round cake and place in the slow cooker.
- Drain the tomatoes, and place them on the meat.
- Cover and cook on Low for 5 to 7 hours.

Before serving, uncover the pot; turn the heat to High, and bubble away some of the sauce. It should be thick, not thin.

Orange Cinnamon Chicken
Ingredients:
3-4 lb chicken cut into serving pieces
1 cup chicken broth, homemade or canned
1/4 lb butter
2 cups orange juice
1 cup raisins (I used sultanas)
salt and fresh black pepper to taste
1/4 tsp cinnamon
2 Tbs flour

Instructions:
- Heat butter in large skillet, and brown chicken.
- Remove chicken pieces to slow cooker as they brown.
- Combine all other ingredients, except flour, mix well and pour over chicken.
- Cover pot, turn on LOW and cook 4-6 hours, or until chicken is tender.
- Remove 1 cup of sauce from the pot and combine with flour, mixing well.
- Return sauce - flour mixture to pot.
- Turn pot on HIGH, and cook additional half hour.

Slow Cooker Banana Bread
Ingredients:
1 3/4 cup flour
2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
1/3 cup shortening
2/3 cup sugar
2 eggs, well beaten
1 1/2 cups well mashed, overripe banana (2 or 3 bananas)
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnuts (optional)

Instructions:
- Sift together the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt.
- With the electric beater on low, fluff the shortening in a small bowl, until soft and creamy.
- Add the sugar gradually. Beat in the eggs in a slow stream.
- With a fork, beat in 1/3 of the flour mixture, 1/2 the bananas another 1/3 of the flour mixture, the rest of the bananas then the last of the flour mixture.
- Fold in the walnuts. Turn into a greased and floured baking unit or a 2 1/2 quart mold and cover.
- Place on a rack in the slow cooker.
- Cover the cooker, but prop the lid open with a toothpick or a twist of foil to let the excess steam escape.
- Cook on high for 4 to 6 hours.
- Cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Serve Warm.

As obsessed as I am with my slow cooker, it had not even occurred to me that baking in it was an option.

Google has cleared up that misconception, so thanks for posting this question. If I have any successes of my own I'll be sure to share them here :)

Thanks for posting this question- believe it or not I actually hadn't really thought of using the slow cooker in that way. I'll have to search around for some recipes and get back to you, but I'm grateful for you sparking the idea! :)
