  2. Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  3. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 teaspoons baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1/2 cup vegetable oil, 1 cup beer (dark beer recommended), and 1/2 cup milk.

  9. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor

Chef's secret: layers of flavor make a dish truly memorable! Consider what a little extra something could bring – perhaps a touch of acidity like a good vinegar or citrus zest, a hint of smokiness from paprika, a bit of umami from mushrooms or soy sauce, or a sprinkle of toasted nuts for texture. Experiment and taste as you go!
