Cheddar Chive Beer Bread

Ingrediencie

3 cups (339 g) self-rising flour

1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese

1 tablespoon minced fresh chives

1 (12 ounce) bottle or can of beer

3 tablespoons melted butter, divided

2 tablespoons honey

Postup

Preheat oven to 375°F. Grease an 8 ½ x 4 ½ inch loaf pan (or a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan). Set aside.

In a large bowl, stir together flour, cheese and chives. Add the beer, 2 tablespoons of the melted butter, and the honey; stir just until combined. Do not over-mix.

Transfer batter to prepared loaf pan.

Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Brush the top of the warm bread with the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted butter. Serve warm or at room temperature.
