Tuesdays at the Table - Beer Bread

So, I've enjoyed Cole's Tuesdays at the Table for a long time now. I decided I would go ahead and jump in with some of my own recipes.


Beer Bread

3 cups all-purpose flour
4 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1/3 cup sugar
One 12oz can or bottle of beer (any beer)
3 tablespoons butter

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Lightly grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Pour in beer, stir until a stiff batter is formed. Best to just mix dough with your hands. Scrape dough into prepared loaf pan.
Melt butter and spread evenly across dough.
Bake in preheated oven for about 35 to 40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into center of the loaf comes out clean.
Cut into thick slices and enjoy!

Isn't beer bread so much fun to make? All the fun of baking bread with out the bother of yeast. And so delicious with homemade soup. yum
