I love Thanksgiving but I'll be honest... I don't eat the turkey! I should say I don't eat 'traditional turkey'. You know the 20 pound bird that you have to clean out, wash, season, stuff, and then try and figure out how to cook it perfectly brown in the oven for hours? That one. 

I much prefer this super easy and simple to make boneless turkey breast that cooks in the slow cooker. And another bonus is that you won't end up with 20+ cups of leftover turkey from Thanksgiving dinner!

BONELESS TURKEY BREAST WITH CRANBERRY SAUCE AND ONION SOUP MIX

  • 5-7 pound boneless turkey breast - Most grocery stores will have these but I always buy mine at Costco. It's the best price and all the turkey breasts are exactly 4.75 pounds (which is slightly under 5 lbs but it's close enough). I have had people sucessfully make this with a bone-in turkey breast. I've never done it but I know others have with great success. Just watch the internal temperature as it may take longer to cook with the bone-in. 
  • 1 can of whole berry cranberry sauce - No need for fancy homemade cranberry sauce here. Just grab a can and you're good!
  • Packet of onion soup mix/seasoning 
  • Orange Juice

WHAT TEMPERATURE DO I COOK TURKEY BREAST TO?

When a thermometer inserted into the largest part of the turkey breast it should read 165 degrees. I'll be honest and say that mine was more like 180 degrees. I am terrified of meat not being cooked all the way through so I just cook it a little bit hotter to be safe.

If you use a larger turkey breast, closer to 7 lbs, your cook time may take longer than mine. Just check the temperature starting at 5-6 hours. The beauty of using the slow cooker is that no matter the meat temperature the turkey will stay juicy and moist because of all the liquid. It's basically fool-proof!

MY TIPS FOR MAKING THIS RECIPE

  • The turkey will come wrapped in three layers. A green netting on the outside, the wrapper, and then the turkey breast inside the package will have a netting wrapped around it. DO NOT remove the netting. Only remove the outer two layers. The netting helps the turkey keep it's shape while cooking which will make it easier to slice it into pieces to serve. Don't worry, you will remove the netting before serving 🙂 
  • If the turkey is slightly less than 5 pounds then that's fine. Just check the temperature and adjust the cook time as needed. 
  • Remember to THAW THE TURKEY BREAST BEFORE COOKING. Stick it in the fringe for at least 2-3 days before you plan on cooking it.

Author: Jessica

Ingredients

  • 1 (5-7 lbs) boneless turkey breast
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • 1 can (14 oz) whole berry cranberry sauce
  • 1 packet onion soup seasoning mix
  • 1/2 cup orange juice

Gravy

  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 tablespoon cold water

Instructions

  • Unwrap turkey breast, making sure to leave the netting on the turkey, and place into a slow cooker. I use a 6-qt crock pot. 
  • Sprinkle salt and pepper over the turkey and rub it in. In a mixing bowl combine cranberry sauce, onion seasoning mix, and orange juice. Pour over the turkey.
  • Cook on LOW heat for 5-7 hours. Internal temperature needs to be at least 165 degrees. Mine cooked for 6 hours. 
  • Take turkey breast out of the crock pot and place onto the serving plate. Cover with tin foil to keep it hot. Skim the fat pieces from the crock pot. Pour the remaining liquid from the crockpot into a medium saucepan.
  • Mix together the cornstarch and water in a small bowl. Bring the sauce from the slow cooker to a boil. Once boiling add the cornstarch mixture and stir with a whisk until it's thickened. You may have to turn the heat down while doing this to prevent it from boiling too much and burning. It should only take between 1-2 minutes for it to thicken. 
  • Pour some of the gravy over the turkey breast and serve. I pour the extra sauce into a jar and set that out with the turkey so you can serve additional gravy with the turkey servings.

Notes

Calorie information is for 5 ounces of turkey breast (size of your palm) with 1/4 cup gravy. 
 
Keep the netting on the turkey breast while it's cooking. Remove it only after the cook time. The netting helps the turkey keep it's shape during the cook time.

    OMG does that look delicious!! I must try this this year - we've just a small gathering and this is perfect. In fact, I was just looking at skinless boneless turkey breasts in the grocery deli and thought that would be a good idea, but cooking it in the slow cooker makes it an even better idea. Thanks for a great share and Happy Thanksgiving!

      How many lbs of turkey breast will fit in a 4 quart slow cooker
      Reply

      • Together As Family

        Well this recipe calls for a 5-7 lb turkey breast and that should fit in a 4 quart slow cooker. So you will be fine. If you're cooking more than one I would recommend using two slow cooker if they are only the 4 quart size.

      The onion soup mix refers to a packet of the onion soup mix. The dry packet, DO NOT prepare ahead of time. Just dump the packet in. Hope that helps. I will clarify the recipe. Thank you!

          I would for sure not leave it out. If you must then replace it with some other seasoning. Otherwise, I think the turkey will have no flavor at all, and it won't be delicious. Just my thoughts :) Enjoy!

            My husband is allergic to onions. What other seasoning mix do you recommend substituting onion soup mix with?

          • Together As Family

            I am not sure what you could use instead. I *think* there is a vegetable soup seasoning that you could try. Wish I could help more, I have never used anything but the onion.

    This looks so good! All I could find was a fresh 6lb turkey breast but it’s NOT boneless. Do you think this will still Work?
    Reply

    • Together As Family

      Yes, it will. Just add 1-2 hours on the cook time, or it may not need that much longer. I’d check the temperature at 6 hours and go from there.

    Made this yesterday for Thanksgiving and ohmygosh, the response i received from my husband was amazing! I'm a vegetarian and I have never made turkey before. Also, my husband is very sensitive to the raw smell and taste of meat and seafood. But according to him, it was moist, flavorful and not at all smelling or tasting raw. I cooked on Normal mode in my Instant Pot, 6.5 lbs With the ribs for 8hrs and amazingly moist. So thank you, thank you, thank you for this recipe! My two favorite parts are that it doesn't take up oven space and no matter where I am in the world, I'm pretty sure those 3 ingredients are in most grocery stores.

          No I have not done that. If I were to cook 2 I would use two different slow cookers. I was just responding to someone who asked if they could put 2 inside the crock pot. If it's big enough you probably could but I have never done it so I can't say for sure.

    I'm going to try this in the morning. This will be my first attempt at a Thanksgiving dinner (ours is altered due to hubby's schedule) and I'm so excited to try it! I don't have the whole cranberries on hand. My husband accidentally bought the jellied kind. If I start this cooking in the morning, can I add the cranberries in later, or will omitting them alter the flavor too much?? Thanks so much for creating and sharing this! Perfect for small families where a big turkey is too much!

    My turkey breast has a gravy packet inside how do I remove that without removing the netting
    Reply

    • Together As Family

      Just remove the netting as little as you can. Like maybe just cut a small section of netting so that you can pull the gravy packet out. If that fails, just remove the netting and cook it.

    I made it with turkey breast fillets (2 kg) cooked it for 4 hours on slow. I may reduce the cooking time by 10-15minutes next time. Reorganized the fillets in the middle. Turned out great. Sliced up each fillet and poured the gravy on top.

    What if the turkey doesn’t have netting inside of the wrapper?
    Reply

    • Together As Family

      It's just fine if there is no netting. Just stick the turkey breast inside the slow cooker and let it cook. It will probably fall apart while cooking so therefore it won't be super easy to slice it for serving, but it will still taste delicious.

    This looks and sounds like a perfect alternative to roasting a large turkey when hosting only a small gathering. My dilemma is that my daughter has an aversion to the taste, smell and texture or oranges. Weird, I know. Ugh. What could I sub for the orange juice? Maybe cranberry juice, or just purchased turkey broth? Any ideas? Thank you!
    Reply

    • Together As Family

      I would say use cranberry juice but just know that it may turn the broth into a weird purple color? Or just use chicken stock or turkey stock. Or you can also just use some water possibly. You just need to replace it with some liquid. I hope that helps. If it helps at all, you can't taste the orange juice at all in the turkey. It's called for in the recipe for the acid and bright flavor, so try to replace it with something like that. Even grapefruit juice would be good too.

      Reply

      • Together As Family

        Putting it in the crock pot frozen should be ok but it will need a much longer cook time. I would imagine it's just like using frozen chicken breast in the crock pot, just increase the cook time. I would guess by at least 1-2 hours. I have never tried it from frozen so I am not speaking from experience, just my best suggestion :)

      I made this for Christmas dinner and it was so delicious! Thank you for sharing! One thing I hoped was that it had more of a cranberry flavor, is there anything you’d suggest to boost that flavor? Other than that this was absolutely perfect, and my husband and I enjoyed every bit of it.

        You could maybe add an additional can of cranberry sauce or throw in some fresh cranberries and let it cook in the slow cooker. That's all I can think of and you would get that additional cranberry taste you want. So happy to hear you loved this turkey! It's one of my favorites.

      I've never made an entire turkey before either! :) I would suggest possibly tripling the recipe for a large turkey like that but I can't promise anything because I have never done it that way. I don't see why it wouldn't work, just make sure you triple/quadruple the recipe to fit the size of turkey. And I am so happy to hear you made this last year and loved it! I make it every year too.

      If you have a large crock pot then you could probably fit two in there, but If I were making two then I would use separate crock pots for each. The turkey that I always use is 4.75 lbs and it can easily feed 10+ people at Thanksgiving because there are so many other sides and food to eat, not just turkey. I hope that helps!

    Reply

    • Together As Family

      I would guess that a 3 lb turkey would take anywhere from 3-5 hours depending on how hot your slow cooker cooks at. Just watch the internal temperature and take it out when it's at 165. I actually prefer to leave it in a bit longer cause I feel the meat gets more tender as it cooks in the slow cooker, but it still stays moist.

    How many will a 5-7 lb turkey breast feed?
    Reply

    • Together As Family

      When I make this for Thanksgiving it can easily feed 8-10+ people, and probably more because there are so many other side dishes at Thanksgiving. If you're serving it for dinner with not as many side dishes then I would safely say 6-8 servings depending on portion size. It's so hard to measure serving sizes with this recipe because it just depends on how much turkey each person wants and how many kids vs adults are eating it.

          Not sure how it would work in the oven. I would not even know where to start to give tips on that, as I have never done it. If you need something by noon I would probably just stick with a smaller turkey that bakes in the oven. I don't have a recipe on my site but Pinterest is a really good place to search for that. Maybe try searching 'small batch oven roasted turkey'. Hope that helps.

      I don't think the roast matters much... to be honest I have never noticed it on the turkey breast that I buy, haha! But I did go down and look at the one in my freezer currently and it does say roast, you're right :) The more important part is that it's an uncooked, boneless turkey breast. In a small 5-7 pound size.

    Unfortunately, the first time I saw this recipe, I did not have a turkey, nor time to run to the store to purchase one, but I happened to have a pork tenderloin handy. I browned the tenderloins in flour, then placed in the crock pot. I followed the remainder of the recipe for the sauce, I cooked the tenderloin on high for 4 hours. It was amazing!!!! I can't wait to try it with turkey!!! Thank you for this recipe.

      Nope. Just follow the recipe as written. That was added in the end for the picture because it's not easy getting an appetizing photo of turkey in the slow cooker, haha :) You could definitely add the rosemary sprig but the recipe is fine without it and I only added it for the picture.

    I’m making this recipe with a 3lb boneless turkey breast- just cut ingredients and time in half? Thank you

        Keep the ingredients the same with a smaller turkey.

    My son and I prefer dark meat. Could this be done with a turkey leg thrown in, too? I realize there will be bones, but just wondering if it would turn out as well?
