Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 12 ounces beer (room temperature)
- 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 for easy removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 3
Slowly pour in the beer, mixing gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until a thick, sticky dough forms. Do not overmix; stir just until no dry flour remains.
Step 4
Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
Step 5
Pour the melted butter over the top of the dough, ensuring it covers the surface evenly. This will create a deliciously golden and crunchy crust.
Step 6
Bake the bread in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 7
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Step 8
Slice and serve as is, or pair with butter, honey, or your favorite spread. Enjoy!
