I have a several friends who share an unhealthy obsession with making beer. Here is a recipe that goes well with BBQ chicken, Sloppy Joe's or even breakfast. Nice in lieu of corn bread...which nearly killed me to say. Please trust me.
Quick Beer bread p775 Joy of Cooking 1997 edition.
Heat your oven to 400 F and grease a loaf pan
In a large bowl, whisk together
1 cup whole wheat flour
1 cup All Purpose flour
1/2 c. old fashioned rolled oats
2 Tablespoons sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1/2 tsp salt
These are your dry ingredients. You mix these together til your arms fall off and no harm will come to the bread. If you're feeling fancy you can also add 1/2 C. shredded sharp cheddar or Monterey Jack and 1/4 C. sliced scallions.
Then to you're shock and surprise. I'm sure you add 1 1/2 C. light or dark beer (not stout). It can be cold or room temp, but not flat. Mix until the dry ingredients are just mixed.
Spread into your loaf pan and bake 35-40 minutes. Let it cool about ten minutes before taking it out of the pan.
Hm. I wonder if this batter makes yummy pancakes. Let me know.
