I got this recipe from my friend Michael, who makes it all the time. I just made some for the second time, today. It is a pleasant, simple recipe, and it smells divine in the oven. It is not a tall, poofy loaf of bread, but a denser type, more like banana bread.
This bread is delicious with butter and jam. Mmmm.....
1/3 cup sugar (I use raw sugar)
3 cups whole wheat flour (I've also made it with 2.5 cups whole wheat flour and .5 cups quinoa flour)
1.5 tsp baking powder
1.5 tsp salt
1 standard-sized bottle of beer (12 oz)
Heat oven to 350.
Mix all the dry ingredients together, and when well-blended, mix in the beer. Cover with a tea towel and leave in a warm place for about 30-40 minutes and it starts to raise.
Scrape it into a lightly-greased loaf pan and bake about 50 minutes or until it sounds hollow when you knock on the top.
Allow it to cool before you slice it.
