📝 Preparation Steps

Place turkey breast in the bottom of a slow cooker, then dry with paper towels. Rub the softened butter over the outside of the turkey.

Press sage leaves in to the top of the breast and season with salt and pepper. Add 1 cup of water to the bottom of the slow cooker. Cover and cook on LOW for 4 to ⏱️ 5 hours.

Begin testing for doneness after ⏱️ 4 hours. A thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the breast should reach 165 degrees, and the juices should run clear.

For browned skin (this step is optional), transfer an oven rack to the middle position and preheat broiler on HIGH. Transfer the cooked turkey breast to a rimmed baking sheet and brush with olive oil.

Broil on HIGH for 7 to ⏱️ 10 minutes, until the skin is golden and brown. Transfer the turkey breast to the carving board and tent with aluminum foil and allow to rest for ⏱️ 15 minutes.

Place turkey breast on a cutting board and slice the breast meat on an angle. Arrange the slices on a serving platter and serve.
