Easy Guinness Beer Bread
Description
Easy Guinness Beer Bread is made by mixing sifted self-rising flour, sugar, and room-temperature Guinness beer into a thick dough. The dough is spread into a greased loaf pan, topped with melted butter, and baked at 375°F for about 50 minutes, rotating halfway through to ensure even baking. The resulting bread features a firm texture with a golden crust and a malty undertone from the beer.
This bread serves well alongside rich dishes like soups or stews or can be sliced for sandwiches. It offers a straightforward way to incorporate beer flavor into a home-baked loaf without yeast or rising time.
The dough should be spreadable but firm enough to hold its shape. Adjusting with small amounts of flour or liquid can help achieve the right consistency before baking.
Ingredients
- 3 Cups self-rising flour sifted
- ½ Cup butter melted
- ¼ Cup sugar
- 12 Ounce Guinness beer Room temperature
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
- Sift 3 cups of flour and add to a bowl, mix in the sugar, and then the room temperature beer. Stir to combine well.
- Pour the dough into a well-oiled 9x5 bread pan. Spread the beer dough to the edges of the pan.
- Pour the melted butter over the top of the beer bread.
- Bake the Guinness beer bread for 25 minutes, uncovered. Rotate and bake an additional 25 minutes. Check doneness with a toothpick, the toothpick should come out clean when the bread is done cooking.
- Remove the beer bread to a wire rack and allow to cool for about 5-10 minutes before slicing and enjoying.
Notes
- The beer bread dough should be thick but spreadable, adjusting flour or liquid slightly can help achieve this texture.
- Use a well-oiled loaf pan to prevent sticking and help create a crisp crust.
- Rotate the loaf halfway through baking to ensure even cooking and browning.
- Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
