Beer Bread

Tuesday, February 22, 2011 | Publish by MizWasy

I'm sure you've read me lamenting of my love of bread in the past.  Whole-grain, white, wheat, rye - I'm not a bread snob by any means.  I saw this in USA Weekend and wanted to share it with you. 

It's from a blog called ThreeManyCooks (see below).  There's even a video on the USA Weekend site; if you want to see how they did it, just click here:  USA Weekend Beer Bread Recipe post

While this may not be bread in a true sense (it's more cake-like, similar to a quick bread), it will suffice when yeast bread is impossible to create in the amount of time you have and you don't want cornbread.

No, this isn't a recipe I created, but if I were to tweak it, I would add garlic and cheese to the mix - or - some Italian herbs - or - sub out the white with part rye flour and toss in some caraway seeds.  (Remember, I'm always trying to see how I can change it up).

Beer Bread Recipe

3½ cups all-purpose flour
3 Tbs. sugar
1 Tb. baking powder
1½ tsps. salt
12 ounces beer
1 egg, beaten

Adjust oven rack to lower-middle position and heat oven to 375 degrees. Mix flour, sugar, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Add beer (no sips!) and stir with a fork until just combined. Turn dough onto a floured surface; knead quickly to form a ball. Place bread on a baking sheet and confidently slit an X on top with a serrated or very sharp knife. Brush loaf with egg wash. Bake until golden brown, about 45 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool. Serve.

YIELD: 12 servings

About the blog . . .

Here you will find recipes from three generations of home cooks. You'll also find a few tips, tricks and shortcuts along the way to make your cooking easier. This is why my husband calls me "Shortcut Sally." There are times when slaving over a meal is warranted and times when it won't affect the final result if you don't. The trick is for you to know the difference and that your guests don't have a clue.
