Rustic, hearty, and packed with bold flavor, this Stout Beer Bread is a must-try for bread lovers and beer enthusiasts alike. Made in just 10 minutes of prep time, this easy no-yeast bread comes together with pantry staples like all-purpose flour, baking powder, and a touch of brown sugar for sweetness. The real star? A rich stout beer that infuses the loaf with its signature malty depth, while a buttery crust adds a golden, melt-in-your-mouth finish. Perfect for serving alongside soups, stews, or a spread of creamy cheeses, this foolproof recipe is your go-to for rustic comfort in every slice. Expect a moist, tender texture with a hint of caramelized indulgenceβideal for cozy gatherings or casual weeknight dinners.
Preheat your oven to 375Β°F (190Β°C) and 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 brown sugar until evenly combined.
Slowly pour in the stout beer while stirring the mixture with a spatula or wooden spoon. Mix until just combined and no dry flour remains. The batter will be thick and sticky.
Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top gently with a spatula.
Melt the butter in a small saucepan or microwave-safe bowl, then pour it evenly over the top of the batter.
Place the loaf pan on the middle rack of the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer it to a cooling rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Stout beer bread pairs wonderfully with butter, cheese, or hearty soups!
