I was pleasantly surprised by how these little kitties turned out. Here’s the link to the recipe : 5 Ingredient Beer Bread So although my spidey senses told me that my bread base was a tad on the thicker side, I forged ahead and baked away. The size of measuring cups for example really do vary from brand to brand and not all are created equal. I felt compelled to add a bit more water to it a little at a time being mindful not to over-mix the base to get it looking closer to what I had seen in the videos.Īnd this is why often times, what we see at first isn’t always what we get when trying out certain recipes because there are so many variances that contribute to those subtle differences. When I was mixing everything together after being sure I measured everything to the tee, my end result was in between a dough and a batter. Thankfully HBH has several video tutorials out there so you can see what I mean. I feel that the wording of a recipe is vital when there’s a lack of visual references. Next was the actual consistency of the dough or “batter” as it’s referred to in the original recipe. My little loaves took about 45 minutes to bake with 15 minutes of rest time before slicing. I also own a ton of round cake pans, which I could have used instead of the mini’s, but I wanted to stick as close to the recipe as possible. So if you’re in the same boat as I was as far as the actual cooking equipment is concerned, you’ll have to make the necessary adjustments and consider if it will add or subtract in the amount of baking time. To start, I don’t own a bread pan or loaf pan, but I do own a set of mini loaf pans from Chicago Metallic that I adore! So that’s what I used. Sounds easy enough, right? Next all you need is a large bowl for mixing, a wooden spoon or spatula, and a loaf pan to bake it in. ![]() Ready? Flour, baking powder, brown sugar, salt, and 12oz of your favorite beer. This recipe that I used is I believe the original posting from 2013, and it’s exactly what it says. And I’m here to encourage you to try your hand at it with a recipe that was created by one of my favorite cooking blogs, Half Baked Harvest by Teighan Gerard. Thankfully there’s a world full of easy bread recipes that don’t require a high level of cooking skills and only use a handful of ingredients to pull it together. I suppose as far as bread is concerned, most meows feel either intimidated by it and think it’s too hard or takes too much time. I don’t know about you meowsers, but I enjoy baking quite a bit.
