Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour (450 grams)
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder (10 grams)
  • 1 teaspoon salt (5 1/2 grams)
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar (55 grams)
  • 12 ounces beer
  • 1/2 cup sourdough discard (142 grams)
  • 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter (divided (56 grams))

Directions

  1. 1

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

  2. 2

    Combine flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, beer, sourdough discard, and 3 tablespoons of butter gently. Don’t overwork the gluten as this is a quick bread. A few clumps are ok.

    Pour batter into prepared loaf pan.

  4. 4

    Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted butter on top.

  5. 5

    Bake at 375°F for 45-50 minutes or until baked through.
