Hooray for Beer Bread!


Want to try making the easiest, tastiest bread on the planet? This Beer Bread is a true culinary delight, and will surely make everyone who tries it, crave it for breakfast, lunch and dinner! I recently started making this hearty, buttery bread for dinner and my husband who is a true food critic, said it was just as good (I think it's better) as my homemade biscuits! Here is the easy, fool-proof recipe!

3 Cups Flour, sifted (you HAVE to sift or your bread turns out like a brick!)
3 Tsp Baking Powder (omit if using self-rising flour)
1 Tsp Salt (omit if using self-rising flour)
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 12 Oz Beer
1/4 Cup Butter (real butter people!), melted

Sift dry ingredients together, and slowly add in beer. This dough will be very sticky, but you don't need to further knead it or handle it with your hands at all. Pour into a greased bread pan and pour your melted butter over top of your dough. Bake in pre-heated oven for 1 hour at 375 degrees, and let cool for 15 minutes.

Voila! You now know the secret to happiness. It's all I can do not to eat more than 2 pieces of this yummy stuff. Darn Weight Watchers! :) Happy Beer Bread making!
