Ingredients
  

For the Dough

  • 1 teaspoon Salt Sea salt or kosher salt can be used.
  • 1 tablespoon Thyme (Fresh or Dried) Can substitute with rosemary or Italian seasoning.
  • 355 mL Room Temperature Beer Soda water can be used for a non-alcoholic version.

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and prepare a greased 8x4-inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, granulated sugar, baking powder, salt, and thyme. Whisk until well incorporated.
  3. Gradually add room-temperature beer to the dry mixture and stir gently until just combined; a few lumps are okay.
  4. Transfer the batter to the greased loaf pan and smooth the top using a spatula.
  5. Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 40-45 minutes until golden brown and sounds hollow when tapped.
  6. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 5 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
  7. Brush the top of the warm loaf with melted butter for added flavor, if desired.
