Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups self-rising flour
  • 1 can/bottle (12 oz) beer Use your favorite! Light, dark or flavored beer will each bring its own twist to the bread.

Instructions
 

Preheat Your Oven:

  • Set your oven to 375°

Prepare the Dough:

  • In a medium-sized mixing bowl, pour the self-rising flour.
  • Slowly add the beer, stirring as you go. Use a sturdy wooden spoon or spatula to mix until all the flour is incorporated.
  • The dough will be stick and have a rough texture - shaggy - that's what you want, so don't overmix it.

Grease the Pan:

  • Lightly grease a standard loaf pan with butter, oil, or non-stick spray to ensure the bread doesn't stick.

Transfer the Dough:

  • Scoop the sticky dough into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Spread it out evenly, but don't worry if it looks a little lumpy or uneven - this bread thrives on being rustic.

Bake:

  • Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50-60 minutes. You'll know when it's done when: the top is a beautiful golden brown; the bread pulls slightly away from the sides of the pan; a toothpick or skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.

Cool

  • Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, turn it out onto a cooling rack and let it rest for another 10 minutes.

Notes

  • Beer Variations: Light beers produce a mild-flavored bread, while darker beers like stouts or ales add a richer, more robust taste. Want to experiment? Try flavored beers like pumpkin ale or citrus-infused brews for a fun flavor twist.
  • Self-Rising Flour Substitute: If you don't have self-rising flour, you can make your own! For every 1 cup of all-purpose four, mix in 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/2 teaspoon salt.
