Preheat the oven to 350°F and lightly grease a 9"x 5"x 3" loaf pan.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, sugar, melted butter, and beer.
3 Cups Self-Rising Flour, 3 Tablespoons White Granulated Sugar, ¼ Cup Salted Butter, 1 ½ Cups Beer
Using a silicone spatula spread the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
Bake the bread for 50 to 60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the loaf comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs. Let the bread cool for a few minutes before removing it from the pan and slicing it.
Notes
My Top TipsThis bread will taste different depending on the beer you choose to use. Feel free to try all different types of lagers and ales. Seasonal flavored beers like "pumpkin spice", "winter spice", or "stone fruit" are fun to try and will change the flavor of the bread.What Can I Substitute for Self-Rising Flour?You can make self-rising flour by adding 1 teaspoon of baking powder, ¼ teaspoon of baking soda, and ½ teaspoon of salt to every 1 cup of all-purpose flour.So for this recipe, you will need 3 cups of all-purpose flour, 3 teaspoons of baking powder, ¾ teaspoon of baking soda, and 1½ teaspoons of salt. Always sift these ingredients together for the best results.Make-Ahead and StorageGenerally, a quick bread made with baking powder and soda is best when eaten within minutes after being baked. But this bread can be made up to 3 days in advance and stored tightly wrapped in cling wrap or aluminum foil at room temperature. It will also keep in the freezer for up to 3 weeks.
