Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
• 1 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
• 1 cup Green or black olives, chopped
• 12 ounces Beer (lager or ale)
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until well combined.

Step 3

Stir in the grated Parmesan cheese and chopped olives, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.

Step 4

Pour the beer into the bowl and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 6

Drizzle the melted butter evenly over the top of the batter for a golden, crispy crust.

Step 7

Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-55 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.

Step 8

Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs wonderfully with soups, stews, or as an indulgent snack on its own.
