Irish Beer Bread

This bread only takes 3 ingredients! Just because I added Guinness's Beer does that make it Irish? Well yes, and I like it better than traditional Soda Bread (because its easier and I like the taste) so that's what we are making! I know you will love it too.

Irish Beer Bread

📝 Ingredients

  • 3 cups Self Rising Flour
  • 12 oz beer (I used Guinness's)
  • 1 stick of butter (8 TBSP) - melted

👩‍🍳 Directions

  1. 1

    Preheat oven to 375. Spoon self rising flour into measuring cup and then add to a bowl

  2. 2

    Pour in 12 oz of beer very slowly so it doesn't foam up too much. Then slowly stir the beer and flour together just enough to get it combined. Do not over mix!

  3. 3

    Pour dough into a nicely greased loaf pan. Pour melted butter over the top. Bake for 50 minutes

  4. 4

    Remove from oven and let cool in the pan on top of a wire rack for 5 minutes then remove loaf from pan. Let cool additional time on wire rack if you choose, or eat it warm as its the best right out of the oven!

  5. 5

    To reheat: Microwave for 10 seconds or toast in a laydown toaster for about 1 minute to warm up.
