Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoons Garlic powder
- 1.5 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 0.5 cups Scallions, thinly sliced
- 12 ounces Beer (lager or ale)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until well combined.
Fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese and thinly sliced scallions, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
Pour in the beer and stir gently with a spatula until a thick, sticky dough forms. Avoid overmixing.
Spoon the dough into the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly using the spatula.
Pour the melted unsalted butter evenly over the top of the dough for a rich, golden crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the loaf pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
Slice and enjoy your Cheddar Scallion Beer Bread on its own or with a spread of butter!
