Soy Free Beer Bread

There is something deeply satisfying about a loaf of homemade bread that comes together with almost no effort, and this one delivers a golden, slightly crispy crust with a tender, fluffy interior that is hard to beat. The carbonation in the beer does the heavy lifting here, giving the loaf its lift and a subtle malty depth that makes every slice taste like it came from a proper bakery. Store-bought breads can be a minefield when you are avoiding soy, since soy flour and soy lecithin sneak into ingredient lists more often than you would expect. This recipe keeps things refreshingly simple — just flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, beer, and butter — so you know exactly what you are eating. The melted butter poured over the top before baking creates a rich, crackly crust that is genuinely one of the best parts. Serve it warm straight from the pan and it needs absolutely nothing, though it is also excellent alongside soup or sliced thick for a hearty sandwich.
