Kitchen Tip Tuesdays: Beer Bread Recipe

This is one of my favorites-- and it is REALLY easy to make!!! We have this restaurant that makes the most awesome beer bread... I was talking about it one day at work and this guy says, "Hey, I have a really good recipe in my Bachelor's Cookbook." He proceeded to share it with me, and I will forever and ever be oh-so-grateful.

Here you go: Yummy Yummy Beer Bread

3 cups self rising flour
3 T sugar
1 12oz beer
approximately 1 cube butter

Mix flour with sugar, add beer and stir. Butter loaf pan, then melt butter. Place dough in pan; pour melted butter all over the top. Bake at 375* for 1 hour.

This bread is fabulous with soups or salads. It is very heavy and makes a good addition to a comfort food meal. I even stocked up on beer when I found it on clearance last summer at Safeway. The sad part was that I was totally embarassed when I ran into someone from Bible Study on my way out, with the entire bottom of my cart loaded down with beer!

Did you know you can use sprite or 7-up in place of the beer? I always was worried about running into someone from church with beer for my beer bread also. Then I discovered you could use sprite or 7-up. I actually made some last night with sprite and it was delicious with a bowl of creamy corn chowder from Tammy's recipes. Enjoy.
