Very Easy Beer Bread

This is a lot of fun for even for kids (just watch out for the ones who liked the Seriously Baked Beans and don’t let them drink all your beer).

It is really easy recipe and mostly fool proof , (there are some fools you just can’t proof).

If you are over here scoping out 365 Days on a regular basis, it’s likely you have the ingredients on hand for this dense bread. It is very good with soups, which is why I am posting it today. Tomorrow I am posting Irish Guinness Stew and the bread is in the picture.

The weather here has regressed to wintery and stormy, which, along with 70 degrees and sunny is typical Bend, Oregon, spring weather. Perfect for some last rounds of soups and stews.

Very Easy Beer Bread

Ingredients

12 oz beer

3 cups flour

3 tablespoons white sugar

Directions

Mix together the sugar and flour in a big bowl.

Add the beer. Here’s where it gets creative. I’ve used everything from Apricot beer to really dark beer like Guinness (in which case I use brown sugar) and keep on mixing. When it gets thick enough, switch to using your hands. The batter will be sticky. Tough it out. Drink more beer.

Pour into a 9 x 5 inch greased loaf pan. (My silcone one seriously rocks.)

Bake at 350 degrees for 50 for 60 minutes.

The top will be hard and crunchy, and the inside will be nice and yummy.
