We absolutely love this bread! I use fresh green onions and fresh garlic. Any beer will do too! If you want to use 3 cups of self-rising flour it works just as well! Just omit the baking powder and the salt! Otherwise, follow as directed. I love to make this when I make a stew or something with gravy. I do hope you enjoy it!

This beer bread may replace cornbread when serving chili. This beer bread is super easy to make. Once baked, the top is crunchy, but inside is tender and buttery. The combination of garlic and onion complements the overall flavor. There's a slight sweetness in this beer bread. Serve warm, with a little bit of butter, alongside a bowl of soup or chili. Yum!

    Once it has that yummy golden brown look take it out of the oven and let it sit 10 minutes to soak up the rest of the butter. Cool on a wire rack. Slice and enjoy! On a personal note, make this bread when no one is home otherwise it will be gone in minutes!! :)
