I can’t recall how I first got this recipe but do know it was soon after moving to Colorado. I’ve never been a big beer fan so was surprised at how much I loved this bread. The yeast in the beer provides the rise in the bread, so there is no waiting for it…this simply could not be quicker or easier. I’m sure you could substitute any type of beer, but I stay true to Coors whenever I make it!
Coors Beer Bread
Ingredients
1/2 C butter
3 C flour
4 1/2 tsp bkg powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
2 Tbsp. sugar
1 (12oz.) can Coors beer
Melt butter and pour enough into 9 x 5 inch loaf pan to coat bottom. In large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, sugar and beer. Spoon dough into loaf pan. Pour remaining butter over the top. Bake in pre-heated 350 degree oven until bread is a light golden color (50-60 minutes). Let stand 10 minutes before cutting with a serrated knife.

Did you forget to add the baking powder for a reason?
Can one use all purpose flour?
Thanks
Virginia…good catch. This recipe originally called for self rising flour but I know few cooks that typically have that on hand, so I decided to break out ingredients and list all purpose flour and baking powder instead and then forgot to edit the preparation instructions accordingly! The baking powder should be added at the same time as the flour. I’ve changed the recipe online.
Thanks…Barb
