Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour $0.30
  • 1 Tbsp sugar $0.06
  • 1 Tbsp baking powder $0.12
  • 2 tsp salt $0.04
  • 1/2 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese* $0.62
  • 4 Tbsp butter, divided** $1.20
  • 12 oz. beer (one regular-sized can) $0.92

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Preheat the oven to 375℉. In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and shredded cheese. Mix well.
  2. Melt the butter in a small sauce pot. Use a pastry brush to coat the inside of a 9x5 loaf pan with butter. Set the remaining butter aside.
  3. Add the beer to the flour mixture and stir until a thick batter forms. Transfer the batter to the prepared bread pan, making sure to spread it out evenly inside the bread pan.
  4. Pour the rest of the melted butter on top of the bread dough.
  5. Bake the bread for 45-50 minutes, or until deeply golden brown on top.
  6. Once slightly cool (about 10 minutes), run a butter knife around the inside edge of the pan gently to loosen the edges, and then turn the bread onto a cutting board to slice and serve.

Notes

  • * or Parmesan cheese** If using unsalted butter, you may want to add an additional ¼ teaspoon of salt with the rest of the dry ingredients or sprinkle the same amount on top of the loaf just before baking.
