Recipe: Red Stripe Lemon Beer and Craisins Bread

Stephanie Coy, managing director of BlueHouse, shared a Red Stripe Lemon Beer and Craisins Bread recipe. It is easy to make, and quick and tasty too.

3 cups all-purpose flour (if using self-rising flour, omit the baking powder and salt)

1 tbsp baking powder

1 tsp salt

4 tbsp granulated sugar

¼ cup craisins

12 oz Red Stripe Lemon Beer (room temperature)

2 tbsp melted butter

Method

1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees Fahrenheit.

2. Grease an 8½”x4½” loaf pan (unless using a silicone loaf pan).

3. In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Pour in the Red Stripe Lemon Beer and stir to combine, then add craisins and stir gently with a wooden spoon (for a tender bread, do not over mix batter).

4. Spoon batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

5. Drizzle the melted butter on top.

6. Bake for 35-45 minutes or until the top is golden and cake tester or toothpick inserted into the centre of the loaf comes out with just a few moist crumbs.

7. Let the bread cool in the pan for five minutes before placing it on a wire rack, slice bread when at room temperature.
