Beer Bread

Beer Bread

Combine dry ingredients:

6 Cups Flour (White or whole wheat)
2 Tbsp Baking Powder
6 Tbsp Sugar
2 Tsp Salt

Once you have mixed the above, then you can combine the below OPTIONAL items (Any seasonings you want, I just add whatever I have at hand).  I used:

Cayenne pepper
Cumin seeds
Oregano
Garlic Powder
Tumeric
No salt seasoning
Pumpkin seeds
Combine with Dry ingredients and mix

2 Cups Grated cheese is added to all the above and mixed.

Now it's time for the Beer.  You can use any Beer you want as I have done this recipe numerous time with Ale, Stout, Pilsner etc.

3 Cups approx.  Beer combines with the dry ingredients.  I never measure the amount of Beer as you have to put enough that the mixture is wet but not too wet.

Mix the Beer and fold it over and over until mixed but not too wet as you can see in the picture below

As this is a doubled recipe I split the batter into 2 buttered (or sprayed) then floured dishes

 

Bake at 375 F for 25 minutes.
If your batter was too wet it will take longer.
