Carol Tilley W.

Total Time: 45 - 60 minutes

Yield: 8-10 slices

• 3 cups self-rising flour
• 2 tsp white sugar
• 1 tsp kosher salt
• 2 tsp honey
• 1 tsp caraway seeds

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray standard loaf pan with cooking spray.
2. Sift flour, sugar, and salt together.
3. Add honey and caraway seeds. Slowly fold in beer with spatula or spoon.
4. Dough should be thick but not as dense as biscuit dough.

Beer bread got me through the first weeks of the pandemic when yeast was impossible to find! You can use any beer or ale to make it. You can enrich it with an egg.

You can spice it up with herbs. You can add ground nuts. You can sweeten it with Splenda or maple syrup. You can toast it in the oven or in a skillet. Go for it!

Your version of beer bread sounds delicious, but I make a version without self rising flour since I never have that on hand. Instead I use:
-2 3/4 cups flour
-1/4 cup sugar
-1 T baking powder
-1/4 t salt
-12 oz bottle beer
Following basically the same instructions as for your recipe. Although, I've never tried brushing the bread with butter, I will try that next time, I bet it adds a lot to the bread.
