Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 12 ounces Beer (lager or pale ale preferred)
- 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined.
Slowly pour the beer into the dry ingredients, stirring with a wooden spoon or spatula until just combined. The dough will be thick and sticky.
Transfer the dough into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the dough for extra flavor and a golden crust.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
