How to Make Country Beer Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 300°F (150°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 3 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1 tablespoon sugar.
  3. Add 1/4 cup honey to the dry ingredients.
  4. Pour in 12 ounces (1 1/2 cups) of your favorite beer, stirring gently with a fork just until the flour is moistened. Do not overmix!
  5. Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  6. Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. As soon as the bread is removed from the oven, brush the top and sides generously with 2 tablespoons of melted butter.
