Description

Intimidated by baking bread with yeast? Have no fear! This recipe calls for beer!

Ingredients

  • 2-½ cups All Purpose Flour, Sifted
  • ½ cups Whole Wheat Flour (Sifted)
  • 3 teaspoons Baking Powder (omit If Using Self-rising Flour)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt (omit If Using Self-rising Flour)
  • ¼ cups Sugar
  • 12 ounces, fluid Dark Beer (I Used A Bottle Of Porter, But You Can Use Any Beer You Prefer.)
  • 2 Tablespoons Butter, Melted

Preparation

Sift together the flours, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add the sugar and mix to combine.

Stir the ale into the dry mixture. This will look a bit wet, but don’t worry—everything will be OK. While mixing the beer and dry mixture together, melt the butter for a few seconds in the microwave.

Pour the dough into a standard sized loaf bread pan and pour the melted butter over the dough. (I thought this looked pretty awful, but it ended up alright in the end. The result was a very nice crusty bread. The original recipe said if you’d prefer a bread with a softer crust to add the butter directly to the dough mixture. It’s your call.)

Bake at 375 F for one hour or until the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
