Easy Peasy Beer Bread Recipes

Steps:

• 1. In a large bowl, mix the Bisquick and the sugar.
• 2. Then add the beer, I find it works better if the beer is room temperature. Mix gently to form the batter , but DO NOT OVER MIX. It may look a little lumpy but that's okay.
• 3. Pour into a 9 X 3 loaf pan, then pour the butter down the center of the loaf
• 4. Bake in a 350 degree oven for about 50 minutes. Check anywhere from 45 - 60 minutes since ovens vary
• 5. Take it out of the oven and let it sit about an hour before cutting. You can eat it right away but it may crumble a little. By letting it sit for a while you will get nice slices. We love it with stew or chili or plain with butter and jam.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees and grease one standard loaf pan.
• Mix all dry ingredients together.
• Slowly stir in one bottle or can of beer and the 3 tablespoons of hot water.
• Mix until just blended, the dough will look shaggy.
• Pour dough into greased/buttered loaf pan and bake for 1 hour at 350 degrees.
• Let loaf cool on a rack for ten minutes or so before cutting. If you prefer a softer crust, you can wrap the loaf in cling film or put into a zip bag.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Mix dry ingredients and beer.
• Pour into a greased loaf pan.
• Pour melted butter over mixture.
• Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minutes.
• UPDATED NOTES: This recipe makes a very hearty bread with a crunchy, buttery crust. If you prefer a softer crust (like a traditional bread) mix the butter into the batter instead of pouring it over the top.
• Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
• I have had many email from you kind folks about using non-alcoholic beverages instead of beer. That is fine to do but I highly recommend adding a packet of Dry Active Yeast or 2 teaspoons of Bread (Machine) Yeast so that you get a proper rise.
• The final result should be a thick, hearty and very tasteful bread, NOT A BRICK! ;).
