Beer Bread

. Thursday, March 8, 2012 .
I know...sounds crazy.  And you would never even think I would makes something with beer in it.  But Betsy had some at her house the other day and it is delicious!!!!

My only problem with the recipe was...where to get the can of beer?  I talked Betsy into talking Dewey into giving me a can.  Then I talked to Ms Renee and she said when I needed one I needed another that I could raid their fridge.  I have the best neighbors.

Betsy's So Simple Beer Bread
3 1/2 cups of flour
3 TBS sugar
1 TBS baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
12 oz can of beer
1 beaten egg

Lower middle rack of the over and preheat to 375 degrees.  Mix all dry ingredients in a bowl.  Add beer and stir with a fork.  When mixed well dump out onto a flowered surface.  Knead until the dough forms a tight ball.  Place on baking sheet and cut an X into the top.  The deeper you make the cup the more of a flouring effect you will get.  Brush with egg wash.  Bake 45 minutes.  Cool on a wire rack.

Think I might have to go raid the neighbors fridge.  Today is a rainy soup kind of day and some good warm bread would be delicious.

  1. This sounds great, Jan. We usually have some beer around, so I may try this, the next time it cools off around here.

    P.S., you have word verification, here.
