beer bread

Lager-leavened baking

Beer bread is a quick bread leavened with baking powder and beer rather than yeast.

The carbonation in beer contributes to the rise, while the malt adds a slightly sweet, yeasty flavor.

It requires no kneading or rising time: I made beer bread to go with the chili.
