Caraway Beer Bread


Ingredients

2 and 3/4 cups(345 g) all purpose flour, sifted
3 Tbsp honey
1 tsp salt
1 Tbsp baking powder
1 - 12 oz dark beer(I used Deschutes Jubelale)
1 tsp whole caraway seeds
Egg wash (whisk 1 egg and 2 tbsp water)


Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.

Mix together sifted flour, sugar, baking powder, salt and caraway. In a separate bowl mix together honey and beer. Stir into dry mixture until just combined, do not over mix. Brush with egg wash.

Bake for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Note: This recipe is very versatile. Try using maple syrup instead of the sugar. Just mix it into the beer before you add it to the dry ingredients.

Try Rosemary and Feta
Garlic and thyme
Sage and brown sugar
