Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz beer or carbonated beverage of choice
  • 3 cups flour
  • ¼ cup sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ¼ cup butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons onion powder optional
  • 2 tablespoons garlic powder optional
  • 2 teaspoon salt

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients except for the melted butter. Stir until a thick, sticky dough forms.
  • Grease a bread pan and dump the dough into the pan. Then, pour the melted butter on top.
  • Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until the top is browned and a thick, crunchy crust has formed. To test if the bread is fully cooked, insert a toothpick into the center of the bread. It should come out clean.
  • Allow the bread to rest for a few minutes in the pan before flipping it out onto a cooling rack.
  • For best cutting results, let the bread cool for 20-30 minutes or until it has cooled completely. Serve the butter crusted beer bread with a saucy seafood dish or soup, and enjoy!
