Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 12 ounces beer (any variety)
- 4 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan lightly with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt until fully combined.
Slowly pour the beer into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until the dough just comes together. Do not overmix; it's okay if the batter is a bit lumpy.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with the spatula.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the batter. This creates a golden, flavorful crust as it bakes.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely or enjoy warm.
Slice and serve on its own, with butter, or as a complement to your favorite meal.
