Description

Beer bread is a quick and easy bread that uses beer as a leavening agent. It's perfect for a braai or barbecue, as it can be made ahead of time and served as a side to grilled meats and vegetables. This recipe uses a mix of whole wheat and all-purpose flour for a hearty and flavorful bread.

Prep Time

10 minutes

Cook Time

50-60 minutes

Ingredient

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup whole wheat flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup honey
  • 1 bottle (12 ounces) beer, room temperature
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted

Equipment

  • Large mixing bowl
  • Whisk
  • Loaf pan
  • Basting brush

Method

  1. Preheat your braai or oven to 350°F.

  3. Add the honey and beer to the dry ingredients, stirring until just combined.
  4. Pour the melted butter into a loaf pan, then add the bread batter on top.
  5. Use a basting brush to spread any remaining butter on top of the bread.
  6. Bake the bread for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Recipes FAQ

Can I use a different type of flour?

Yes, you can experiment with different flours. Keep in mind that using all whole wheat flour will result in a denser bread, while using all-purpose flour will produce a lighter texture.

No, you can use any type of beer you like. Just keep in mind that different types of beer will result in different flavors in the bread.

Can I make this bread ahead of time?

Yes, you can make this bread ahead of time and store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days. Reheat the bread in the oven or braai before serving.

Recipe Tips

  • Make sure your beer is at room temperature before using it in the bread batter.
  • Use a light hand when mixing the batter, as overmixing can result in a tough bread.
  • Brushing the top of the bread with melted butter before baking will result in a crispy, golden crust.
  • If you don't have a loaf pan, you can use a cake pan or even a cast-iron skillet.
