2-Ingredient Slow Cooker Beer Bread

Ingredients :

• 3 cups self-rising flour
• 1 can (12 oz) of any beer

Directions :

1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the self-rising flour and beer until just combined. Don’t worry about a few lumps—they won’t hurt a thing.
2. Grease the inside of your slow cooker or line it with parchment paper for easy cleanup. Use plenty of butter or cooking spray.
3. Gently transfer your dough mixture into the slow cooker. The dough will be sticky, but that’s perfectly normal.
4. Cover and cook on high for 1 1/2 to 2 hours. It’s done when the top is firm and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
5. Lift out the loaf and let it cool before slicing. It will slice cleaner once it has cooled down a bit.

Variations & Tips Feel free to get creative with this basic recipe. Add a handful of fresh herbs or a good shake of cheese for extra flavor. Sharp cheddar or a touch of rosemary can be wonderful additions. Any beer will do—light or dark—each bringing its own character to the bread. For a lighter loaf, use a pale ale. For a richer taste, try a stout or a porter.

If you don’t have self-rising flour, you can make your own. For each cup of all-purpose flour, add 1 1/2 teaspoons of baking powder and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Mix well, and you’re good to go. Happy baking!
