What’s in this Simple Beer Cheese Bread?
If you’ve been a reader of the Fisiz for a long time, you know that baking is not our jam. Active yeast frightens us which is why we adore this Simple Beer Cheese Bread because start to finish it only takes an hour to make.
For this recipe you will need:
- All-purpose Flour
- Baking soda
- Granulated sugar
- Garlic powder
- Paprika
- Egg
- Beer
- Bacon
- Cheddar Cheese
- Jalapenos
- Cream Cheese
Tips :
- Beer. We're a big fan of IPA beers when it comes to cooking. Typically you want to use a beer that you actually enjoy drinking because most of the time you don’t use a whole can and have some leftovers. And let’s be real, we aren’t here to waste beer!
- Cheese. If you aren’t a fan of cheddar you can definitely swap out for gouda or a white cheddar. OOOOh…. smoked mozzarella would be memorable too! Either way, try to keep the cheese in this bread because it makes it an 11/10 situation.
- Jalapenos. We adore spice. However, if you aren’t into jalapenos that’s totally fine. You can either omit the jalapeno all together and use a 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper for less heat.
