Why would anyone buy beer bread mix from a retailer when it is so easy to make? Seriously, it is crazy easy to make yourself. No lie. Just a few simple ingredients . . .and voila! Beer Bread. Great with soups, stews, dips etc etc etc. Or by itself . . .with a thick layer of butter. Just sayin'.
Beer Bread
Yield: 1 Loaf
Ingredients:
3 Cups Self Rising Flour
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 and 1/2 Cups Beer (12 oz)
4 Tablespoons Butter, melted and divided (3 TB + 1 TB)
Step 1: Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan.
Step 2: In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients: the flour and sugar. Once blended, add in 3 tablespoons of the melted butter and the beer. Stir until mostly smooth (don't worry about having it a little lumpy).
Step 3: Pour the the batter into the prepared bread pan and spread out evenly. Drizzle with the remaining 1 tablespoon melted butter on top of the batter.
Step 4: Place the filled bread pan into the preheated oven and bake the bread for 45 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the top of the loaf comes out clean.
Step 5: Remove the bread from the oven and let cool for 5 minutes. Then, turn it out of the pan and let it finish cooling on a rack. Once cooled, slice and serve!
I prefer a good dark beer and used Guinness for this recipe. But, use what you like for beer.
