Beer Bread Ii Recipes

BEER BREAD I

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the sugar and flour. Add beer and continue to mix, first using a wooden spoon, then your hands. Batter will be sticky. Pour into a 9 x 5 inch greased loaf pan.
• Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees ) for 50 for 60 minutes. The top will be crunchy, and the insides will be soft. Serve topped with butter or cheese spread.

BEER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix dry ingredients and beer.
• Pour into a greased loaf pan.
• Pour melted butter over mixture.
• Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
• UPDATED NOTES: This recipe makes a very hearty bread with a crunchy, buttery crust. If you prefer a softer crust (like a traditional bread) mix the butter into the batter instead of pouring it over the top.
• Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
• I have had many email from you kind folks about using non-alcoholic beverages instead of beer. That is fine to do but I highly recommend adding a packet of Dry Active Yeast or 2 teaspoons of Bread (Machine) Yeast so that you get a proper rise.
• The final result should be a thick, hearty and very tasteful bread, NOT A BRICK! ;).
• Thank you all for the incredibly nice comments and those of you who left a bad review - learn to sift sift SIFT! You will be amazed at the results you get.

BEER BREAD II

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, stir together flour, sugar, beer, cheese and chilies. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan; spread batter to evenly fill pan. Pour melted butter on top of loaf.
• Bake in preheated oven for 50 to 60 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into center of loaf comes out clean.

BETTER BEER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 and spray a loaf pan (I use a glass pan).
• In a large bowl, mix flour and sugar together. If you are making one of the "variations", add those ingredients to the bowl.
• Slowly pour in room-temperature beer, as if you were trying NOT to create a huge "head" of bubbles.
• Gently mix batter, again being careful not to whip the bubbles out of the beer and only mixing until everything is moistened. You will have lumps!
• Pour batter into loaf pan. Melt butter and pour over batter.
• Bake 375 degrees for 45-47 minutes. The top will be brown and the butter will have created a wonderful, slightly salty exterior.
• Tip: place a sheet of foil under your loaf pan to catch any excess butter that may bubble over.

EASY BEER BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease one standard loaf pan.
• Mix all dry ingredients together.
• Slowly stir in one bottle or can of beer and the 3 tablespoons of hot water.
• Mix until just blended, the dough will look shaggy.
• Pour dough into greased/buttered loaf pan and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
• Let loaf cool on a rack for ten minutes or so before cutting. If you prefer a softer crust, you can wrap the loaf in cling film or put into a zip bag.

BEER BREAD II

Steps:

• Combine mash and oats with 5 cups of flour.
• Add the sediment and combine well, stirring in one direction to develop gluten.
• Turn out dough onto a heavily floured board and knead, drawing in approximately another 3 cups of flour.
• It will have the consistency of a heavy biscuit dough.
• Shape into a smooth ball and place in a lightly oiled large stainless bowl.
• Cover and let rise in a warm, humid place until about double in bulk, about two hours.
• Punch down and divide into four loaves.
• Place loaves in lightly oiled bread pans, cover and let rise in a warm, humid place for about one hour.
• Preheat oven to 400 degrees F and bake loaves for approximately one hour.
