Ingredients

1/4 cup sugar
12 oz beer light in color
3 cups all purpose flour sifted
3 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/4 cup salted butter melted

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees
Butter the inside of the loaf pan and set aside.
Sift flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar into a large mixing bowl.
Pour beer into the bowl with dry ingredients. Stir to combine. Mixture will be sticky.
Transfer bread mixture to loaf pan. Use a spoon to spread bread mixture out to edges while leaving it somewhat uneven on the top to give it a more rustic look when it’s done cooking.
Pour melted butter over the bread mixture and place in the oven at 375 degrees.
Cook at 375 degrees for 1 hour, uncovered.
Remove from the oven and let cool for 15 minutes.
Serve with butter, honey, and jam

Notes

● Check bread at 50 minutes cook time. If too brown on the top cover with foil for the remaining 10 minutes.

● Sifting the flour is the most important part of this whole recipe. The bread will be lighter and more airy if sifted. If not sifted then it will be a more dense bread.

● The top of this bread will be buttery and crunchy after it’s done cooking.
