I've discovered a new recipe that I'm quite sure I'll be utilizing a lot during the winter stew/soup season. It's called Beer Bread--although you don't need to use beer to make it (which I don't).
BEER BREAD
3 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1T baking powder
1 tsp salt
12 ounce beer OR any lemon/lime soda (I've use Sprite and Sierra Mist)
1/2 stick butter, melted
Grease bread pan and pour half of the melted butter into the bottom.
*Whisk dry ingredients together until well mixed.
*Add soda (or beer) and mix well. This will be a stiff batter, but keep mixing.
*Place batter in bread pan. May need to smoosh it around so it covers the pan.
*Pour remainder of melted butter over the top.
*Bake at 350 for 55-60 minutes. (my oven tends to run a bit hot so I check it sooner than that)
**Bread is done when brown and crispy on top and toothpick inserted in middle comes out clean.
*Allow to cool in pan for five minutes before removing to wire rack.
This is a dense batter bread and will have a crisp crust. If you use soda, it will have a mild sweetness. Sprite works best for our taste.
Enjoy!!
