This is a frequently requested bread in my household. Along with the request for me to make it always comes the comment, You don't make that beer bread often enough. It is so....Good! Hope you enjoy it as much as we do. Prep time does not include proofing of starter.Makes one 1 1/2 lb. loaf Ingredients:
3/4 cup beer |
4 teaspoons brown sugar |
1 teaspoon active dry yeast |
1 cup bread flour (or all purpose flour) |
1/3 cup milk |
1 egg |
4 teaspoons olive oil |
2 cups bread flour (or all purpose flour) |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1 teaspoon active dry yeast or 1 teaspoon bread machine yeast |
Directions:
1. For the starter: In a medium mixing bowl combine the beer and brown sugar.
2. Sprinkle the first teaspoon yeast over beer mixture; stir to dissolve.
3. Stir in the first bread flour.
4. Mix well.
5. Cover with plastic wrap; let stand at room temperature (75-85 deg) for 12 to 24 hours.
6. (Placed in oven with light on-electric, or pilot light-gas, also works well for this.) To finish the bread: Add the starter and the remaining ingredients to the machine according to the manufacturer's directions.
7. Select the basic white bread cycle.
