Artificial Flavors Free Beer Bread
There is something deeply satisfying about a loaf of bread that comes together with just a handful of pantry staples and zero fuss. This recipe relies on flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, beer, and butter — nothing more, nothing less — so you never have to squint at a label wondering what "natural and artificial flavors" actually means. The beer does double duty here, acting as both the liquid and the leavening boost that gives the loaf its rustic, slightly chewy crumb. Melted butter poured over the top before baking creates a golden, crackling crust that makes it nearly impossible to wait for it to cool. It bakes up beautifully at 375°F into a deep amber loaf that smells incredible and tastes even better. Serve it warm with a little extra butter, alongside a bowl of soup, or just torn apart straight from the rack — it holds up either way.
