recipes {beer bread in under an hour}

i may not drink alcohol but that doesn't mean i can't appreciate it while cooking & baking! this is one of my favorite bread recipes. my mom used to make beer bread when we were kids and would usually pair it with BBQ crock pot beef...ah, my mouth is watering just thinking about it! what i really love about this recipe is that, unlike most breads, there is no need to wait for this dough to rise. if you want a really quick & fool-proof bread recipe, this one's for you!


>> what you'll need
yields 1 large loaf or 3 small loaves.

3 cups of self rising flour
{if you don't have self rising flour then use all purpose flour but add 11/4 tsp baking powder & 1/4 tsp salt for EACH cup of flour used}
2 tbs sugar
12 oz beer
1/2 - 1 stick of butter

>> directions
1. preheat oven to 350 degrees. combine flour {& baking powder + salt if using AP flour} and sugar in a large bowl.

2. stir in beer about 1/3 of the can at a time. mix until combined.

3. lightly grease 3 small loaf pans or 1 large loaf pan and dump dough into the pan(s).

4. melt butter and pour over the dough. {for a more buttery flavor you can use a whole stick but 1/2 a stick will do just fine!}

5. bake for 50 minutes or until the top of the bread is golden brown.


stay tuned for the other components of this delicious meal, including steamed//broiled artichokes, coq au vin & mini 4-layered chocolate cakes with whipped cream & fresh raspberries. :)
