A quick bread (no kneading required) that has the texture, taste and smell of fresh-from-the-oven farmhouse bread.

Step 4Turn out and cool on a wire rack before slicing.

Recipe Notes
Beer and water need to equal 400ml. Do not use low-alcohol beer in this recipe. This bread keeps well and also makes excellent toast. I love this bread with soups and also with BBQs, makes a nice change to a damper.
