Introduction

You will be hard pressed to find an easier recipe for bread than this one!!! Pretty much any beer will work in this recipe, though i've had fun with beers like Bell's Cherry Stout and Big Sky Brewing's Moose Drool...so don't be afraid to throw in a bottle of your favorite intriguing beer! Just keep in mind, the same rule applies to cooking with beer as applies to cooking with wine: if you wouldn't drink it, don't cook with it!

Ingredients

    3 c. flour (I usually use a mix of whole rye and whole wheat flour, but use whatever you prefer**)
    1-1/2 T. baking powder
    1-1/2 tsp. salt
    3 T. sugar
    12 oz. beer

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 deg F. Grease loaf pan.

Mix dry ingredients well; add beer. Stir till well mixed, but don't OVER-mix the dough. Pour into prepared pan and bake for 1 hour. Let cool slightly on rack before cutting.

**If you use conventional white flour, decrease baking powder to about 1 T.

    I couldn't get 16 slices either and the crust was hard but that's good :) The firs loaf I did with Honey Weiss and it sliced nicely, the second one with sunset wheat was more crumbly. You can tell the subtle hints of the beer! Brought it to a soup cook off...MAJOR HIT! - 1/9/10

    Incredible!
    After you pour the bread in the pan, you pour 1/4 c. Melted butter evenly over it. Keeps the top soft. - 2/14/17
