Honey Beer Bread

By Johanna

This Honey Beer Bread recipe is so easy to put together and is so rewarding when that hot bread comes out of the oven.

Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 2 tablespoons honey or agave nectar
• 1 bottle (12 ounces) beer
• 4 tablespoons (half stick) butter, melted

Preparation

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9x 5x 3-inch loaf pan.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt. Using a wooden spoon, stir the beer and honey into the dry ingredients until just mixed. (I recommend popping your honey in the microwave for a few seconds beforehand to make it easier to stir in!)

Pour half the melted butter into the loaf pan. Then spoon the batter into the pan, and pour the rest of the butter on top of the batter. (Use a pastry brush to spread it around if you’d like.)

Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until top is golden brown and a toothpick/knife inserted in the middle comes out clean. Serve immediately.
