Beer Bread
This bread is a simple no yeast batter bread that comes together in minutes and goes well with soups, stews, and as simple appetizer with dips. In the notes I have instructions for how to give this simple bread as a "do it yourself" bread kit.
Equipment
- 1 large bowl
- 1 9x5 or 8.5x4.5 size bread pan
Ingredients
- 3 cups flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 12 ounce beer any type
- 4 tbsp softened butter
Instructions
Preheat oven to 375 degrees and use 1 tbsp of butter to butter the pan.
- Mix flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt together in a bowl, whisk to make sure the ingredients are blended well.
- Create a well in the middle of the dry ingredients and add 12 ounces of beer, and 2 tbsp of melted butter. Whisk together with a bread whisk or a spatula.
- Pour batter into a prepared pan and place in preheated oven for 50-60 minutes.
- Check to see if bread is done by poking a toothpick in to the center of the loaf, if it comes out clean remove bread and drizzle remaining 1 tablespoon of butter over loaf.
Notes
Giving Beer Bread as a "do it yourself" gift: Add dry ingredients together, and place them in a food safe plastic bag, or a paper bag that is lined and used for packaging food. Write the ingredients and directions out on a note card. Give them a beer along with the cute packaged beer bread mix. All they need to add is the butter! You could even gift this to them in a bread pan.
