With only 5 minutes of prep and no kneading required, this foolproof recipe is ideal for busy weeknights or last-minute gatherings. Perfectly comforting and irresistibly delicious, this beer bread is your new go-to recipe for effortless homemade baking.
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a standard loaf pan (9x5 inches).
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir until well mixed.
Slowly pour the beer into the dry mixture. Mix gently with a wooden spoon or spatula just until combined; do not overmix. The dough will be thick and lumpy.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly using the back of a spoon or spatula.
Pour the melted butter evenly over the top of the batter. This will create a golden, crispy crust.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the beer bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes.
Carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool slightly before slicing and serving.
