Whole Wheat Beer Bread

So, it’s the New Year, and you’ve made a resolution to eat healthier. Sounds boring, right? Well, it doesn’t have to be. Healthy recipes can be full of flavor! Here is an example:

Whole Wheat Beer Bread

1 ½ cups all purpose flour
1 ½ cups whole wheat flour
4 ½ teaspoons baking powder
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1/3 cup packed brown sugar
1 (12 ounce) can or bottle beer

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all purpose flour, whole wheat flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar. Pour in the beer and stir until a stiff batter is formed. It may be necessary to mix dough with your hands. Scrape the dough into the loaf pan. Bake for 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Makes 12 servings. Note: The type of beer used will affect the flavor of the bread. For a lighter bread, use a pale ale. For a darker, heartier bread, use a stout or dark ale.

Enjoy!  - Riley
