Two Recipes for Beer Bread

with variations


Recipe #1

3 C self-rising flour
1 T sugar (optional)
1 normal sized can beer (room temperature)
1 egg
1 T water

variations

3 C self-rising flour
2 C cheddar cheese
2 T Caraway or dill
1 chopped jalapeno
2 C minced tomatoes
1 t each oregano, basil & thyme
1/2 C chopped fresh basil
1/2 C grated Parmesean cheese

Preheat oven to 375. Combine flour and sugar and any optional ingredients you choose, pour in beer and stir until moist. Pour batter into greased & floured loaf pan and let sit for about 15 min. to rise. Dough will be gooey. Beat egg and water together. Brush top with egg mixture and bake for about an hour or until pick comes out clean. When done, brush top with butter.

I like to do just the cheeses, or cheese and herbs together, or cheese and jalapenos, orherbs and tomatoes, or tomatoes and cheese, or cheese, tomatoes and herbs, or just herbs. Basically, just use your imagination and try what sounds good.
