Cafe Dreams and Beer Bread (you must try, seriously)
Perhaps I need to open a Cupcake Cafe like this: Calico Cafe Opens in Tokyo
I'm thinking it will be called "Kitten's Cupcake Cafe." What do you think?
While perusing recipes on recipezaar (like any normal person would do), I came across the following recipe for Beer Bread. IT IS DELICIOUS and insanely easy to make!!!!! It took me about 5 minutes to throw together. Everyone should make it, stat and ASAP!!
Beer Bread
3 Cups of sifted flour
3 teaspoons of baking powder (omit if using self-rising flour, which is what I used and I highly recommend)
1 teaspoon of salt (omit too if using self-rising)
1/4 Cup of sugar (use a smidge more if using dark beer)
12 oz of your favorite beer (or least favorite. FYI 12oz = 1 can)
1/2 cup of melted butter (1/4 cup is enough, but 1/2 is tastier)
1) Preheat oven to 375*
2) Mix the SIFTED (this is key) flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a medium bowl (MIX WELL)
3) Dump the beer in and mix it up
4) Put in a greased loaf pan (will be thick). Spread it around a bit so it is even, and pour melted butter over the top.
5) Bake for 1 hour (or until top is golden-brown and middle is not doughy)
6) Cool for at least 15 minutes before devouring

KristyNotes:
- YOU MUST SIFT (otherwise it will turn out not delicious)
- 1st time I made this I used Stella Artois and it was perfect. 2nd time I made it I used Guinness and it was a bit too strong. Conclusively, I suggest using lighter beers.
- Lyric mixed some soft butter with honey and spread it on ze beer bread. It was tasty, I highly recommend this method of consumption.
