3-Ingredient Honey Beer Bread Recipe
Prep Time:
15 minutes
Cook Time:
50 minutes
Servings:
8 Slices
Ingredients
  • 3 cups self-rising flour
  • 3 tablespoons honey, plus extra for brushing on the baked bread
  • 1 (12-ounce) can or bottle amber ale, cold
Directions
  1. Preheat the oven to 375 F.
  2. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper and/or lightly grease it.
  3. In a large bowl, combine the self-rising flour and honey, and stir to distribute the honey evenly.
  4. Pour in the ale and gently stir until just combined. The batter will be thick and slightly lumpy — don't overmix.
  5. Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Bake the bread for 50 minutes to 1 hour, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  7. About 5 minutes before the bread is done baking, brush the top with a little extra honey for a shiny, sweet crust.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
