I don't know why, but this seems to always be the bread I will make to eat on Sunday nights :) Don't ask---I'm a reverend's daughter, and I'm making beer bread, but there you go! It's kind of a "take off" from Indian Fry Bread (I'm originally from Arizona, so Oldham Tash every year held glorious fry bread for me)---I made it up in my head!

Basically, you mix 2 cups of white flour, a pinch of salt, a pinch of sugar (to taste), 1 heaping tsp. of baking powder, 1-2 cups of cold water, and about 1/2 bottle of beer. I used the Sierra Nevada Pale Ale, but you can use any beer. Here it is in the bowl (which happened to be the only bowl that was clean!). Mix it well---it'll be sticky :)
NEW NOTE (12/21/08)---I substituted Rice Flour and the batter came out WAY SMOOTHER!! -
You then grease a pan (either with non-stick spray or butter---I used butter because that was what we had), and drop forkfuls or spoonfuls of batter into the skillet. Then cook it just like you would a pancake (I tend to like mine a little doughy, my husband prefers them crispy). If you want it flat, just smooth the batter out---I like mine thick :)
-
Then they're done :) As you can probably ascertain, I'm not the greatest of cooks, but I do love to cook, and these aren't perfect, but seldom anything that I make ever is! That's the *fun* of it, I guess :)

could you make it without beer or substitute it for something else as my family hardly ever drink alcohol and I'm only 14

As to the substitute question, I'm experimenting with other items, such as maple syrup & honey (I know the honey one is good, I'll get back to you on the maple syrup). If you substitute about 1/2 cup of syrup or the same amount for the honey, that would probably work! I'll definitely get back to you on that one!

do you use beer so they taste like beer or because of the hops and yeast in beer (I've got that right with the hops and yeast thing right?) to make it go more like bread?

Hello :) I used the beer because it tastes more "yeasty" to me, and I LOVE bread (especially when it's rising in the oven!) I'm not much of a drinker (and can't really tolerate liquors such as scotch or whiskey or rum), and I like the smell of beer, so I decided to try it! Thanks for the question :) Tame

I tried this out, and I think I made them too watery they ended up looking like pancakes. My brother loved them as pancakes though (I'm not sure he thought it was made with beer) and added syrup and jam to it. :)

I always make them and they end up doughy (which is how I like them!). My husband loves them, but he would rather have them flat like a pancake (or flatter), so I usually try to compromise by making several batches :) Thanks for trying it out!

OOH! I was just thinking, "I wonder what it would be like with Guinness?" and then read Betty's comment. I'm making this tomorrow -- we almost always have some Guinness in the house!

Youre awesome!
I just made these with Shiner Commerator (100 anniv. beer for a texan beer) and wow!
I did use a bottle though and had to add more flour....it was kinda cake like before I did.
Thank you for this awesome receipe!

I'm so glad people love this bread :) I can't wait to cook it again! We're moving, so that'll be the first *home cooked* meal in our new house!

I finally got to try it :) It's good! I did use a light beer, and think it would be better with a lager, so I will try that next time. I ended up using only 1c water and a little more than half the beer...next time, thinking of only using 1/2c water and entire beer...more beer! haha

I agree---I think the bread works best with a lager or dark beer, and a little less water :) The more beer, the better!!
