BEER BREAD

Per Google.com, the #1 recipe for Beer Bread in the world! There are a few recipes for beer bread out there, but none as simple (and tasty!) as this one. You can even mix it in the baking pan for easy cleanup. This is sensational when served with soups or just as a snack, but don't expect it to be around very long when your family gets a taste of it! Be sure to use a sheet pan on the shelf below the pan to catch any excess butter that may drip during cooking.

Time 1h3m

Yield 6-8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 cups flour (sifted)
3 teaspoons baking powder (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
1 teaspoon salt (omit if using Self-Rising Flour)
1/4 cup sugar
1 (12 ounce) can beer
1/2 cup melted butter (1/4 cup will do just fine)

Steps:

  • 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.
  • I have had many email from you kind folks about using non-alcoholic beverages instead of beer. That is fine to do but I highly recommend adding a packet of Dry Active Yeast or 2 teaspoons of Bread (Machine) Yeast so that you get a proper rise.
  • The final result should be a thick, hearty and very tasteful bread, NOT A BRICK! ;).
  • Thank you all for the incredibly nice comments and those of you who left a bad review - learn to sift sift SIFT! You will be amazed at the results you get.

CHEESY BEER BREAD



Cheesy Beer Bread image

This easy bread recipe uses beer and baking powder to leaven instead of yeast, producing a loaf with a lightly crisp crust and a beautifully soft interior. A strongly flavored cheese, like sharp Cheddar or Gruyère, complements the flavors of the beer. The brown sugar isn't absolutely necessary, but it extends the bread's shelf life, keeping the interior soft even after it's been sliced. This bread is especially lovely served warm, but is also delicious at room temperature.

Time 1h30m

Yield One 9-by-5-inch loaf

Number Of Ingredients 9

Nonstick spray
3 cups/385 grams all-purpose flour
3 tablespoons light or dark brown sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
5 tablespoons/70 grams cold unsalted butter, cut into 1/2-inch cubes, plus 1/4 cup/55 grams melted unsalted butter, for finishing
1 (12-ounce/355-milliliter) bottle beer (1 1/2 cups), preferably a lager or ale
1 1/4 cups/140 grams shredded firm or semi-firm cheese, such as sharp Cheddar, Gruyère or fontina

Steps:

  • Heat the oven to 375 degrees. Lightly grease a 9-by-5-inch loaf pan with nonstick spray.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the flour, brown sugar, baking powder, salt and pepper to combine. Add the cubed butter and use your hands or a pastry cutter to work the butter into the flour until you have fine crumbs.
  • Add the beer and mix until thoroughly combined. Fold in the shredded cheese. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread into an even layer.
  • Brush about 1/3 of the melted butter over the surface of the loaf and transfer to the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, brush with more butter, then return to the oven for another 20 minutes. Brush with the remaining butter, and return to the oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, another 20 to 30 minutes. (The internal temperature should read at least 200 degrees on a thermometer.)
  • Cool the bread in the pan for 10 minutes, then run a small offset spatula around the edges and unmold. Cool at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips for Making Buttery Beer Bread:

  • Use fresh ingredients: Fresh, high-quality ingredients will result in the best-tasting bread. Make sure your butter is cold and your milk is at room temperature.
  • Measure your ingredients accurately: Baking is a science, so it's important to measure your ingredients accurately. Use a kitchen scale for the most precise results.
  • Don't overmix the dough: Overmixing the dough will result in a tough, dense bread. Mix the dough just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Let the dough rise in a warm place: The dough needs to rise in a warm place in order to double in size. A warm oven or a sunny windowsill are both good options.
  • Bake the bread until it's golden brown: The bread is done baking when it's golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Conclusion:

Buttery beer bread is a delicious and easy-to-make bread that's perfect for any occasion. Whether you're enjoying it with a cup of soup, a salad, or just on its own, this bread is sure to be a hit. So next time you're looking for a new bread recipe to try, give buttery beer bread a try. You won't be disappointed!
