Easy Four-Ingredient Pumpkin Beer Bread

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 375°F. Lightly grease a 9" x 5" loaf pan.

Step 2

Mix the flour, sugar and the beer, stirring until fairly smooth; don't worry about a scattering of small lumps.

Step 3

Pour batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top a bit. Drizzle with melted butter.

Step 4

Bake the bread for 45 to 50 minutes, until a toothpick inserted about 1/2" into the top of the loaf comes out clean, or with a few moist crumbs clinging to it.

Step 5

Remove from the oven and let stand 5 minutes in the pan before turning out onto a wire rack to cool.

Step 6

To keep bread moist, slice when ready to serve. It slices best when completely cool, but feel free to slice and enjoy while still warm.

Step 7

Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
