Best Beer Bread

Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Lightly grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.

Step 2

In a large bowl, mix flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, cumin, sugar, bacon, jalapeno pepper and cheddar cheese. Pour beer over the mixture and mix just until combined. Do not over-mix. Spoon into loaf pan. Pour melted butter over the bread.

Step 3

Bake for 50-60 minutes or until set and lightly browned.  Move to a wire rack to cool for 10 minutes. Remove from the pan and allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before cutting into the loaf.
