I found this deliciously looking recipe on pinterest and couldn't wait to try it out! Two out of my three kids, my husband and myself all loved it! I have made it twice in the last week- we just can't get enough of it! It is really tasty and what is important to me too- extremely easy and super quick to make! No kneading required!
When I first made the bread, it seemed like the 4 tablespoons of butter the recipe calls for were way too much, but when the bread was done baking and I took it out of the oven to taste it, I could see the butter made a world of difference! The crust was so full of flavor, we couldn't stop eating it! :)))
Ingredients (for one loaf):
3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
1 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
1 can beer (12 oz)- any kind you like
1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Directions:
Preheat over to 350F. Grease a 9″x5″x3″ loaf pan. (You could also line the bottom of the pan with parchment paper.) Set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Using a wooden spoon, stir the beer and honey into the dry ingredients until just mixed. (You can microwave the honey for 5 to 10 seconds beforehand to make it easier to stir in.)
Pour half the melted butter into the loaf pan. Transfer the batter into the pan, and pour the rest of the butter on top of the batter. Slide a baking sheet onto a lower rack to catch any butter that might overflow from the loaf pan (it happened to me the first time I made it and I wasn't prepared- we ended up with a smoky, smoky kitchen...)
Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.Serve immediately- it is really good right out of the oven!
Variation:
If you’re a big fan of beer-cheese bread, you can also add a cup or so of cheddar (or your favorite cheese) into the batter to give it the queso-kick. :)
