Quick Bread That's Actually Quick

Hello!

If any of you readers follow me on Twitter  then you know that one of my summer goals, along with learning to play the ukulele, is learning how to make bread. I've managed to learn how to play the ukulele but... It's early August and there hasn't been any bread popping out of the oven. I don't mean banana bread or rolls, I mean a loaf of sandwich bread. So even though I made awesome bread last night, it wasn't sandwich bread, but one day it will happen, folks! Here is the recipe that Maggie shared with me (via Pinterest) from Cookie Monster Cooking for Buttery Honey Beer Bread

Buttery Honey Beer Bread

Ingredients:

- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1 Tbs white sugar
- 1 Tbs baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 3 Tbs honey
- 1 bottle (12 oz) your favourite beer
- 4 Tbs unsalted butter, melted and cooled slightly

Instructions:

✿ Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 9 by 5 inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray or butter. Set aside.

✿ In a large bowl, whisk together both kinds of flour, the sugar, baking powder and salt. Add in the honey and beer and mix until just combined. Spread the batter evenly in the prepared pan. Evenly pour the melted butter over the top of the batter.

✿ Transfer the pan to the oven and place a baking sheet on the lower rack to catch any butter that may drip from the pan. Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean and the top is golden brown.



Enjoy!
