Ingredients
3
cups
all-purpose flour
1
tablespoon
baking powder
1
teaspoon
salt
1/4
cup
white sugar
one
12 ounce
bottle beer
2
tablespoons
melted salted butter
Instructions
Preheat the oven to 375°F. Grease a standard 9x5 inch loaf pan and set aside.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt.
Make a well in the center of the ingredients, then pour the beer in.
Mix until the dough just comes together, it should still be a little lumpy.
Turn out into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top.
Brush the top with the melted butter.
Place the loaf pan on a baking sheet, then place into the oven.
Bake for 35-45 minutes, until golden brown on top and a toothpick or cake tester inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 5 minutes, then turn out onto a baking rack to cool.
Slice and serve right away, this doesn't keep well and should be eaten the same day it's made for the best taste and texture.
Notes
This really only works with alcoholized beer that has yeast in it!
