Celebrating St. Patrick’s Day With Beer Bread!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! I hope you all celebrate accordingly(and responsibly!). While most people are out drinking Guinness and wearing leprechaun costumes, I'll be at home baking.

You might have seen cupcakes with Jameson Whiskey or even the traditional Irish Soda Bread, which I'm a fan of. I like to go a little less traditional and very simple. I like to bake a loaf of Beer Bread. All you need are some ingredients and a bottle of your favorite beer!

Here's what you need:

3 cups of Self-rising flour
1/2 cup of Sugar
12 ounces of your favorite Beer
2 tablespoons of melted butter.

Here's what you do:

• Preheat your oven to 375 degrees.
• Spray or butter a loaf pan and set it aside for later.
• In a big bowl, combined the Sugar, Flour and Beer. Mix it well, it will be kind of sticky.
• Pour mixture into loaf pan, and bake for 55 minutes. During the last 5-3 minutes, take mixture out of oven and brush the butter over the top. Then put back in the oven and resume baking.

And there you have it! You have your very own Beer Bread. You can enjoy it with dinner or alone with just a beer. At least that's what I would recommend. Have a Happy St. Patrick's Day full of food and fun.
