STOUT (BEER) BREAD



Stout (Beer) Bread image

Amazing flavor and so easy to make! This is a sweet bread similar to banana bread in texture. Serve warm with cinnamon butter or cream cheese. Make it plain or add craisins, dates, nuts, or let your imagine go wild. If you are not weighing the flour besure to spoon the flour into the measuring cup; it's important to have the correct amount of flour otherwise you'll be disappointed! Original recipe was found on Simply Recipes, however I've made a few adjustments!

Categories     side-dish

Time 1h30m

Yield 1 loaf

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup quick-cooking oats (not instant), such as McCann's, plus extra for sprinkling
2 1/4 cups whole wheat flour, such as Heckers
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup dark brown sugar, lightly packed
2 1/4 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 (11- to 12-ounce) bottle Guinness extra stout beer, at room temperature
1 cup buttermilk, shaken
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, plus extra for brushing the pan
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
Salted butter, such as Irish Kerrygold

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
  • In a large bowl, combine the oats, whole wheat flour, all-purpose flour, brown sugar, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. In a separate bowl, whisk together the beer, buttermilk, melted butter, and vanilla. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet ingredients into the well. With your fingers, stir the batter from the middle of the bowl to the outside, until it's well mixed. It will look more like cake batter than bread dough.
  • Brush a 9 x 5 x 2 1/2-inch loaf pan with melted butter. Pour the batter into the pan and sprinkle the top with oats. Put the bread in the oven, immediately turn the temperature down to 400 degrees, and bake for 45 minutes, until a toothpick comes out clean. Turn the bread out onto a baking rack and allow to cool completely. Slice and serve with salted butter.

IMPERIAL STOUT BREAD

The easiest bread you will ever make--if you can stir, you can have fresh bread in an hour! The dark beer gives it a great flavor not commonly found in beer bread (please please please do not use light beer in this!!!). For variation, try adding caraway or fennel seeds, fresh grated nutmeg, finely chopped orange zest, or finely grated cheese. You can also make this into biscuits, just bake at same temp on parchment lined sheet for 10-14 minutes depending on the size of the biscuits.

Yield 1 loaf, 16 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups wheat flour (also works well with whole rye flour, just add 2 T. extra flour)
3 tablespoons sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
12 ounces imperial stout beer (or other dark beer)

Steps:

  • Combine dry ingredients in a medium bowl; whisk gently till completely mixed. (Or if you're not a lazy cook like me, sift your dry ingredients together into the bowl--I prefer to whisk, however!).
  • Add beer and stir with wooden spoon till flour is totally incorporated.
  • Pour batter (it will be rather thick) into a well-greased bread pan.
  • Bake at 375 deg. F. for an hour, or till loaf is nicely browned and tests done when tapped.
  • Cool on wire rack slightly before serving. Will keep about a week wrapped up in the fridge.
