Pat's Beer Bread

I live on the Southern Delaware Coast. In season we eat alot of crabs. My mother in law makes this bread whenever we have a crab dinner. It is soooo delicious and so easy to make. If you can't have dairy, just substitute Earth Balance whipped Spread in place of the butter.

• Ready In: 55 mins
• Serves: 6
• Yields: 1 loaf

Ingredients

• 3  cups self rising flour
• 3  tablespoons sugar
• 1 (12 ounce) can beer (we use Miller Lite)

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
2. Mix flour, sugar and beer together and pour into a greased loaf pan (I prefer a Pyrex loaf pan, but any loaf pan works).
3. Bake for 45-55 minutes (depending on your oven), until golden and crusty on top.
4. When finished baking, remove from oven and slowly pour melted butter all over the top of the loaf.
5. Let sit for 10-15 minutes and serve.
6. This is best when it's warm!
