Beer Bread
Bread made with beer? Absolutely, and it's incredibly delicious too!
Servings: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- 400 grams all-purpose flour
- 1 bottle beer 330 ml / 11 floz
- Pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp instant dry yeast
Instructions
- Add all ingredients to a large bowl and mix until combined. The dough should be wet and sticky. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and let it rise for at least 8 hours. Overnight is perfect, but don’t let it rise longer than 18 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 425°F/220°C (conventional oven) with the baking sheet inside.
- Lightly flour your work surface. Turn the risen dough onto the surface and gently press out the air. Shape into a round loaf and place it on a sheet of parchment paper. Carefully slide the bread, including the parchment paper, onto the hot baking sheet.
- Bake for 35-40 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through. Cover loosely with aluminum foil after 20-30 minutes to prevent the top from getting too dark.
How to store
Store the beer bread in a bag or airtight container for 3-4 days. Keep in mind that the crust will become less crispy once stored. You can also freeze the bread for up to 3 months.
