The BEST Cheddar, Beer, & Bacon Quick Bread | No Yeast Needed

Try this easy recipe for Cheesy Beer Bread. The ULTIMATE Bacon Beer Cheese Bread. Perfect anytime -- Even perfect for Game Day with a big bowl of Chili! INGREDIENTS: 3 cups unbleached or all-purpose flour 1 tablespoon baking powder Scant teaspoon salt 2 tablespoons granulated sugar 1 cup peeled, diced apple (I used Fuji) Any firm apple will do 1 1/4 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese. (reserve 3 tablespoons for topping) 12 ounces beer any light to medium-bodied beer 3 tablespoons melted and cooled butter 1 cup cooked, drained and finely chopped bacon Instructions Preheat your oven to 375°F. Thoroughly grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan. (I use good old Crisco). As the video shows, I use a parchment "sling" for the pan to ensure the loaf will easily remove from the pan. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until evenly distributed. Fold in the diced apple, cheddar cheese (hold back 3 tablespoons of the cheese to top the loaf before baking), and bacon to the dry ingredients. Toss until they are coated with the flour mixture. Pour the beer into the mixture gradually, stirring with a spoon until just combined. Don't over-mix Place the dough into your prepared loaf pan, spreading it out to make sure all corners are covered and the loaf top is even. Drizzle the melted butter over the loaf. Sprinkle with the two tablespoons reserved cheese. Bake in the preheated oven for approximately 35-40 minutes. Check for doneness using a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown. Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Remove the baked loaf from the pan and transfer to a wire rack. ✅ SUBSCRIBE & never miss a video! 🔔 HIT that BELL to receive a notification when I upload new videos! 👍 THUMBS UP my video if you enjoyed watching, please!
