Lazy Irish Beer Bread

Recipe #14988 | 55 min | 10 min prep | add private note

By: Len

From me own lazy Irish grandmother who died at 100 years plus one day old on Saint Patricks Day back in 1968. I love the way it smells while baking. If you don't like the smell of beer, stay away from it. I also like that you can add it to an oven being used to make something else like a chicken etc. If the other item being baked or roasted requires 325F, just add an extra 10 minu

SERVES 8 -10 , 1 loaf (change servings and units)

Ingredients

  • 2 1/2 cups self rising flour
  • 12 ounces room temperature beer (the better the beer, the better the bread. I use Harps beer made by Guiness in Dublin)
  • 2 tablespoons sugar

Directions

  1. 1
    Hand mix all ingredients only until well mixed (do not beat or use a mixer).
  2. 2
    Put mixture into a greased loaf pan.
  3. 3
    Preheat your oven to 375º F degrees.
  4. 4
    Bake for 45 minutes.

Great recipe! My mom had a beer bread mix from Taste of Home and I loved it, however she would not buy anymore because it was so expensive. I decided to look for a recipe as I was sure it could be made at home for much less. I was right. We prefer our bread a little sweeter to offset the slight bitter taste from the beer and baking powder, so I double the sugar.

    Great recipe, took me about 10 minutes from start to finish - including making my own self-rising flour using Self-Rising Flour. brushed it with butter and sprinkled it with kosher salt the last 10 minutes of baking time. whipped up some honey butter - and the loaf didn't last til dinner. i used labats lite and like the flavor, but i have some polish beer received as agift - gonna' try that next time. this is a winner.
