What is with me and all this cooking with Beer! ha! For someone who rarely and barely drinks it...go figure. But it does add a little Zing to my baking skills. Last week our good friend Nancy (Lily's adopted Grandma) and neighboor came over for a lesson in bread making. She makes homemade bread all the time...SO YUMMY! She said Beer Bread would be the easiest to start with. I have made zuccini bread many times but that is not the same as making bread you have to wait for. And I mean WAIT for. Who knew how much pre planning and patience went into bread making. It has to rise? Really? For HOURS! Lets just say I really appreciate Nancy's bread a 100 times more after this. I would do it again though...as it was a hit and super tasty. Here are the crazy ingredients we used:
Instead of measuring the flour Nancy has a mini scale that I just happened to like. Might need to be on my future Christmas List. Look how cute it is...
Waiting for the bread to rise....Could you hurry up already! I want to eat BREAD!
Finally...baked.
And I think it was a hit....
Again if you are interested in the recipe let me know and I will post it!
