Beer Bread

Okay, maybe this isn't a sweet, but I thought it deserved some recognition.   Forget those fancy, expensive boxed mixes.   Try this quick, easy, and delicious recipe.

Beer Bread

3 cups self rising flour 

1/3 cup sugar

12 ounces beer

5 Tablespoons butter, melted

Gently mix the flour, sugar and beer until combined. ( It is very important not to over mix!)  Pour batter into a greased loaf pan and bake at 350 degrees for 45 minutes.  Pour the melted butter on top and bake 10 minutes more.   So simple and sooooooo delicious!!

*Notes

Different beers will produce different flavors.  It's fun to experiment!

There are so many variations.  By adding different herbs and spices, the possibilities are endless!

The bread pictured below was made using regular old Bud Light.  I also added 2 Tablespoons of fresh chives and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.

I love to serve this bread the "Tastefully Simple" way.  Cut into small cubes and served with the dip of your choice.
