Stout Beer Bread Recipes

STOUT (BEER) BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• Spray a 9x5-inch loaf pan with non-stick.(butter flavored) spray.
• Into a large bowl sift together the flour, baking powder, salt and sugar.
• Slowly pour half of the beer into the flour mixture and stir (The pub cans of Guinness are larger than 12 ounces, but they have better carbonation, so use what you need and drink ;=) the rest.).
• Add the molasses and stir in the balance of the beer.
• Stir in optional craisins, dates, or nuts.
• NOTE: Stir just enough to blend in the flour but DO NOT over mix or you'll end up with a beer brick!
• Pour into the prepared loaf pan (no more than 2/3 full).
• Bake for 45 - 55 minutes or until toothpick comes out clean.
• Cool in pan for 5 minutes, and then turn it out onto a rack.
• Drizzle or brush the butter on the top of the bread.

GUINNESS BEER BREAD

GUINNESS® BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Grease an 8x8 inch baking pan.
• Mix together the oats, flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt in a bowl. In a separate large bowl, stir together the butter, vanilla, buttermilk, and Guinness® beer. Pour the flour mixture into the beer mixture, and gently stir until well blended. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan, and sprinkle with additional oats if desired.

IMPERIAL STOUT BREAD

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl; whisk gently till completely mixed. (Or if you're not a lazy cook like me, sift your dry ingredients together into the bowl--I prefer to whisk, however!).
• Add beer and stir with wooden spoon till flour is totally incorporated.
• Pour batter (it will be rather thick) into a well-greased bread pan.
• Bake at 375 deg. F. for an hour, or till loaf is nicely browned and tests done when tapped.
• Cool on wire rack slightly before serving. Will keep about a week wrapped up in the fridge.
