Beer Bread
« on: April 07, 2015, 03:25:55 pm »
I printed off this recipe for bread using just SR flour,beer,sugar and salt some time ago. I didn't believe it would actually work when i printed it, but as I was in need of a quick loaf today - about 45 minutes from start to finish - I have just made it , expecting disaster. It was wonderful - lovely and soft, a good colour and a brilliant, crunchy crust - all without any yeast! Amazing.

I cant remember where I found the recipe but it was for the TM31 and used 400 grams of SR Flour, 300 grams of beer (any beer), 2 tblspns of sugar and a tspn. of salt. Chuck it all in the TM and mix on speed 6 for 10 seconds. Plonk it all in a greased loaf tin (I used a 2lb loaf tin) and bake at 190c for about 45 minutes. I tapped the bottom of my loaf to make sure it sounded hollow before finishing baking.
It really is speedy and very good.

I do hope I'm not stepping on anyone's toes here, by printing this again. I honestly can't remember where I got it, but it is printed on paper with the VORWERK sign at the top of the paper, so it must have come from a genuine TM website.

Does it have a 'beery' taste?

It does have a slight "beery" taste, but it's really nice considering how very simple it is. i will definitely make it again and again.

To convert it to a TM5 recipe and use up the remaining beer, how much extra flour do you think should be added?  Plus a bit more sugar?
