We found this recipe and tweaked the ingredients a bit to come up with a nicely sweetened beer bread with a great crunchy top. The secret to our success was using a honey beer (or you can use a sweetened pop such as 7Up, too, just don't use a diet pop, as the flavor will not be the same). Read more . This is good on its own, or served in chunks alongside dips or spreads - the sweetness works well with the salty dips. The bread was excellent warm from the oven and slathered in butter!
Ingredients:
21/2 cups self-rising flour
1/2 cup flour
⅓ cup plus 2 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon sea salt or garlic salt
12 ounces beer (a honey wiess works nicely)
3 tablespoons butter, melted
Directions:
1. Lightly grease a 9 x 5 loaf pan.
2. In a medium bowl, mix the self-rising flour, white flour, brown sugar, baking powder, and salt together well.
3. Pour in the beer, and mix just until ingredients are moistened.
4. Pour batter into the prepared baking pan.
5. Drizzle melted butter over top of batter.
6. Bake at 375 degrees for 45 to 55 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
7. Allow bread to rest in pan for 10 minutes, then remove it from pan and let it cool on a wire rack.
