coffeesnob318I love this bread.
See? Behold the delicious...
I also love how easy this bread is to make. This was the first time I made beer bread from scratch (i.e., not from a mix). If I'd known how easy it was, I would have never spent all that money on the mix.
I got this recipe from my friend Mel. It's really simple - Mix together three cups of self-rising flour, one warm beer (I use Corona), and two tablespoons of sugar. Pour into a greased loaf pan (or two, if you have small ones or want to shave about ten minutes off the cooking time...and I do), and bake at 350 for about an hour.
Simple as pie. Simpler, actually.
Edited to add - The most important part - after you get it into the loaf pan(s), pour a stick of melted butter over the top before you put it in the oven to give it that nice golden glow. Happy.
