Beer Bread Recipe - Easy Peasy, and Yummy for the Tummy

This is a great bread to serve with dinner - best warm, so make sure you put it in the oven an hour and a half or so before dinner is ready....The format when I copied and pasted didn't come out too well, but I did try to fix it up a bit. The link to the website is here - you may want to just click it to get the real thing! Plus...the copyright thingie...and by the way, DO sift your flour. Not just in this recipe, but any recipe you make. Makes it much better!

• BEER BREAD RECIPE http://www.food.com/recipe/Beer-Bread-73440 Ingredients 3 cups sifted flour 3 teaspoons baking powder 1 teaspoon salt 1/4 cup sugar 1 (12 ounce) can beer 1/4 cup melted butter Directions Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Mix dry ingredients and beer. Pour into a greased loaf pan. Pour melted butter over mixture. Bake 1 hour, remove from pan and cool for at least 15 minute  NOTES: Sifting flour for bread recipes is a must-do. Most people just scoop the 1 cup measure in the flour canister and level it off. That compacts the flour and will turn your bread into a "hard biscuit" as some have described. That's because they aren't sifting their flour! If you do not have a sifter, use a spoon to spoon the flour into the 1 cup measure. Try it once the "correct" way and you will see an amazing difference in the end product.
