EASY BEER BREAD

EASY BEER BREAD 1/4 cup sugar 12 oz beer light in color 3 cups all purpose flour sifted 3 tsp baking powder 1 tsp salt 1/4 cup salted butter melted Preheat the oven to 375 degrees Butter the inside of the loaf pan and set aside. Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar into a large mixing bowl. Pour beer into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir to combine. Mixture will be sticky. Transfer bread mixture to loaf pan. Use a spoon to spread bread mixture out to edges while leaving it somewhat uneven on the top to give it a more rustic look when it’s done cooking. Pour melted butter over the bread mixture and place in the oven at 375 degrees. Cook at 375 degrees for 1 hour, uncovered. Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes. Serve with butter, honey, and jam NOTES ● Check bread at 50 minutes cook time. If too brown on the top cover with foil for the remaining 10 minutes. ● Sifting the flour is the most important part of this whole recipe. The bread will be lighter and more airy if sifted. If not sifted then it will be a more dense bread. ● The top of this bread will be buttery and crunchy after it’s done cooking.
