Beer Batter Bread Recipe Self-Rising Flour

Flour: This easy beer bread recipe uses self-rising flour to make it quick. If you don’t have self-rising flour, I’ve included directions for all-purpose flour in the notes!

Beer: Beer helps this bread rise, and it also adds flavor. Dark beer, like stouts, have a deep flavor, while light beer makes for lighter-tasting bread. Both are great; just use what you have on hand!

That’s all there is to it! It’s great with butter and jam or served with stew or soups for dunking and dipping. Serve with soupor a yummy bruschetta for the perfect side dish or appetizer!

Easy Buttery Beer Bread Recipe

Made with no yeast, no kneading, and no rise time, this easy beer bread is ready for the oven in no time!

Beer can be replaced with seltzer water but the beer adds flavor so you will want to add additional seasonings or additions. Don’t skip the salt & sugar, and don’t skimp on the butter or the bread will not have any flavor.

You can add seasonings like garlic powder, herbs such as dried basil or parsley, and/or parmesan or cheddar cheese to change up the flavor.

Three Ingredient Beer Bread is so much better than what you get using a mix, and it is just as easy to make! It doesn’t require you to proof yeast and it’s only three ingredients. Plus it’s so easy to add in other mix-ins, like honey or cheese! As an added bonus, you don’t even need a bread machine.

This beer bread recipe starts with self-rising flour. Self-rising flour is a combination of flour, baking powder, and salt. The combination of the baking powder and the salt work together to act as a leavening agent.

Beer Bread Without Self Rising Flour

In my Pizza Dough recipe, you can see how we add yeast (the leavening agent) to warm water and wait for it to proof before adding it to the flour mixture and letting that dough rise. By using self rising flour, we skip that step in this recipe.

This is just a brief overview of this delicious and easy bread recipe. For the full recipe with all of the measurements, please see the recipe card at the bottom of the post.

There are a few differences when it comes to all-purpose flour and self-rising flour. Self-rising flour contains baking powder and salt, all-purpose flour does not. Additionally, self-rising flour is made with wheat and is lower in protein than all-purpose flour.

Simple Beer Bread

It is possible to make a substitute for self-rising flour with all-purpose flour, but keep in mind it won’t be exactly the same because you are changing the protein level.

For every one cup of flour you use, you need one teaspoon fresh baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon table salt. So for this recipe, you can replace the self-rising flour with:

Tastefully

The first question I ask people when they tell me a bread recipe didn’t work was what kind of pan they used. Metal, ceramic, and glass all conduct heat differently and will have a different impact on your baking recipe. I opt for metal for all my baked goods because it conducts heat the best.

Pennsylvania Cooking: Beer Bread

The bread pan you see here is this one from USA Pans. It is my favorite and cooks bread perfectly every single time.

I get that question a lot with this recipe. The answer is: Whatever type of beer you like. It is important to use a beer that you would drink on it’s own because it can be a strong flavor in this bread.

I use a pilsner because it is light and doesn’t have an intense flavor. Though I have only made this recipe with pilsner beers, this bread will work with any type of beer. It also works with soda (read more on that below). This is a great recipe to play around with and figure out what you like.

Easy Beer Batter Recipe

If you have someone in your life who is sober, you can still make this great bread! This recipe works great with soda. I make it with lemon-lime soda (like Sprite or 7-Up). It has just a slightly smaller rise that is barely noticeable. Because of the additional sugar content, it browns just slightly more.

Overall, soda is a great substitute for beer in this recipe. I think that a lemon lime soda is the best choice because it has the mildest taste of sodas.

This recipe can be made gluten-free if you make your own self-rising flour with gluten-free flour. As you can see, it doesn’t have quite the same rise as when you use flour with gluten, but it absolutely does work.

Easy No Yeast Beer Bread

I suggest using a gluten-free flour that is meant to replace all-purpose flour one-for-one. I used King Arthur’s brand in this test. You will want to use:

A lot of recipes call for a few tablespoons of melted butter on top of the bread. I call this a three ingredient beer bread because my family loves this recipe without the butter on top. If you want the butter, have at it. I recommend using three tablespoons of melted butter and pouring it over the bread in the last three to five minutes of baking to prevent it from browning or burning.

Store this bread in an airtight container, once it has fully cooled, for up to a week. It can be stored at room temperature. As with all recipes, use your best discretion when it comes to leftovers.

Ingredient Beer Bread

This bread freezes great. Store in an airtight container (a gallon ziplock bag works great), and keep in the freezer for up to three months. It will also work great to cut it into slices, freeze them in a single layer for a few hours, and then transfer them to an airtight container.

Because this recipe is so simple, there are a lot of variations that can be done. Really the sky is the limit when it comes to mix-ins.

I love making this with a light beer like a pilsner because it has such a mild
