Aside from drink it! (Which I am not doing much of these days.) So I decided to make beer bread! Honey beer bread to be more exact and holy moly it was delicious! For the beer I decided to use an organic brown ale from Vermont.
Here is the recipe with some pictures to follow ...
Honey Beer Bread
Ingredients
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp honey
1 bottle (12 ounces) beer
4 Tbsp butter, melted
3 cups all-purpose flour
2 Tbsp sugar
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
2 Tbsp honey
1 bottle (12 ounces) beer
4 Tbsp butter, melted
~ Preheat the oven to and grease a loaf pan - in a mixer (or large bowl) mix together the flour, sugar, baking powder and salt - slowly mix in the honey and beer until the ingredients are just mixed - melt the butter and place about half of it in the bottom of the loaf pan - spoon dough into the loaf pan and spread the remaining butter on top ~
Bake at 325 degrees for about 50 - 60 minutes

Mixing in the beer! |
I know it looks like a whole lot of butter but I promise it is not THAT much! |
Straight from the oven! |
Delicious! |
And since it was such a nice day and because I work so close to Washington Park, I decided to take a walk and look at the tulips. The Albany Tulip Festival is Mother's Day weekend however it is rumored that the tulips may not last until then. Either way - they are pretty!
