Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. In large mixing bowl mix flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, cheese and green onions. Using as few strokes as possible, mix in the beer until moistened.
  2. Pour thick batter into a greased loaf pan. Drizzle melted butter over the top.
  3. Bake in a 375 degree oven for 50 minutes. Remove and cool 10 minutes before removing from pan. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Jalapeno Cheese beer bread: omit the green onion and replace with 2 seeded and diced jalapenos. Delicious with chili!
  • Garlic Herb Beer Bread: Omit the onion and add a teaspoon each of Italian seasonings and garlic powder to the bread batter! 
  • 7-Up Bread:  Don’t have beer or prefer not to use it? I’ve occasionally substituted 7-Up soda with decent results! It is much denser since it doesn’t “rise” the same way bread with beer will since there’s no yeast but it still tastes good! If using 7-up, reduce the amount of sugar in the recipe by 2 tablespoons.
