Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 1 cup Green or black olives, chopped
- 12 ounces Beer (lager or ale)
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.
Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped olives, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.
Pour the beer into the bowl and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the batter for a golden, crispy crust.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs wonderfully with soups, stews, or as an indulgent snack on its own.
