Crispy Beer Bread - Recipe image

INGREDIENTS

  • 4 cups (600g) whole wheat flour
  • 2 teaspoons (16g) baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon (4g) baking soda
  • 1½ teaspoons (12g) salt
  • 1 large can (500 ml) beer
  • 2 tablespoons (40ml) honey
  • 3 tablespoons (30ml) olive oil

For the topping

  • 2 tablespoons (20g) sunflower seeds or any other nuts we like

METHOD

  1. In a large bowl, combine the whole wheat flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Mix well.
  2. Add the beer, honey, and olive oil, and stir with a wooden spoon until a soft dough forms. No kneading is required. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
  3. Transfer the dough to a greased 24cm round pan with a hole in the middle. Using the back of a spoon, smooth the surface and sprinkle with sunflower seeds. Bake in a preheated oven at 180°C for about 55 minutes, or until golden brown and cooked through in the center. Let the bread rest for about 10 minutes, then invert it and slice. Enjoy it warm, but it's equally delicious when cooled.
