Beer Bread

Looking for a really easy, fast and yummy bread?  This is a "quick" bread that doesn't have to rise and is perfect for dinner!  The recipe is from the Lake City Christian Reformed Church cookbook and the recipe I used was from Shannon Winkle (the other was from Erin Heuker). It can be slightly adapted depending on which kind of flour you used.  Both recipes have been included.

Ingredients:
3 c. self rising flour
1/4 c. sugar
12 oz. beer
1/4 c. melted butter

or

3 c. flour
3 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. salt
1/4 c. sugar
12 oz. beer

Directions
Preheat oven to 375.
Mix dry ingredients and beer.
Pour into greased loaf pan.
Pour melted butter over mixture (if using).
Bake for 1 hour.
Remove from pan and cool on wire rack for 15 min.

Note: Great with spinach dip.
The taste and texture are reminiscent of the biscuits you get at KFC and Bojangles. . .I think I'm going to try making drop biscuits next time.
This is going to sound crazy but I actually ate some of the bread topped with cut up strawberries mixed with a bit of sugar. . .amazing!
