Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Whole wheat flour
- 1.5 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 3 tablespoons Honey
- 12 ounces Beer (preferably a wheat or light beer)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan lightly with butter or cooking spray and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together to ensure they are well-mixed.
Add the honey and beer to the dry ingredients. Using a wooden spoon or spatula, stir the mixture until just combined. The dough will be thick and sticky, but try not to overmix.
Pour half of the melted butter into the prepared loaf pan. Spread the dough evenly into the pan on top of the butter.
Pour the remaining melted butter over the top of the dough, spreading it evenly with a brush or spoon if needed. This helps create a golden, flavorful crust.
Place the loaf pan into the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 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 pan for about 5 minutes. Then transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely or serve warm.
Slice and enjoy your Honey Wheat Beer Bread plain, with butter, or as a base for sandwiches.
