Beer Bread

INGREDIENTS

Nutrition
  • 3
    cups flour (***sifted***)
  • 3
    teaspoons baking powder (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
  • 1
    teaspoon salt (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
  • 14
    cup sugar
  • 1
    (12 ounce) can beer
  • 12
    cup melted butter (1/4 cup will do just fine)

DIRECTIONS

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
  • Mix dry ingredients and beer.
  • Pour into a greased loaf pan.
  • Pour melted butter over mixture.
  • Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
  • UPDATED NOTES: This recipe makes a very hearty bread with a crunchy, buttery crust. If you prefer a softer crust (like a traditional bread) mix the butter into the batter instead of pouring it over the top.
  • Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
