This Guinness Beer Bread is SO delicious. It’s soft, sweetened with honey and the perfect amount of malty goodness. Best served warm with butter!

Ingredients

  • 3 cups all purpose flour
  • 3 tsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1/4 cup honey (can sub light brown sugar)
  • 12 oz Guinness Beer (I used an extra stout version)
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 375. Generously grease a 9x5 inch loaf baking pan with butter. Set this aside.

  2. Grab a large bowl and mix the dry ingredients (flour, baking powder, salt) together until they are fully combined! Be thorough on this step :)

  3. To the bowl, add in the Guinness Beer and let the foam settle. Then add in the honey. Mix mix mix with a wooden spoon until it's fully combined.

  4. Add the batter directly to the greased loaf pan.

  5. Melt 2 tbsp of butter in a small bowl and pour over the top of the batter in the pan to cover it.

  6. Bake for 45-50 minutes or until you can insert a toothpick into the middle and it comes out clean.

  7. Let rest in the pan for 5-10 minutes. Gently remove onto a wire cooling rack. Slice when ready and enjoy! I like mine best with butter and a drizzle of honey. Enjoy every bite!
