Peanut Free Beer Bread

There is something deeply satisfying about a loaf of homemade bread that comes together with almost no effort, and this beer bread delivers exactly that. The carbonation in the beer does the heavy lifting here, giving the loaf a tender, slightly chewy crumb without any yeast or kneading required. A pour of melted butter over the top before baking creates a golden, crispy crust that makes it nearly impossible to wait for it to cool. Store-bought breads can be a minefield when you're avoiding peanuts, with shared facility warnings lurking on labels you'd never expect — baking your own is the cleanest solution. This recipe keeps things beautifully simple: flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, beer, and butter, with zero ambiguity about what's in it. It's the kind of loaf that pairs with everything from a bowl of soup to a generous smear of jam, and it tastes like you put in far more effort than you actually did.
