I love Beer Bread.  I made it with white whole wheat flour.  When I was writing my post about flours, I learned that there is such a thing as white whole wheat flour.

I always thought if a flour had the word white in front of it, that it was highly refined.  Not the case with white whole wheat.  It is a whole grain from a different kind of wheat.

So I bought a bag last weekend.  First, I made my Pumpkin Spiced Waffles with it.  They came out light and fluffy, much different than when I bake with whole wheat flour.

Then, I thought it would be great to make a bread with.  So I decided on beer bread.

My first batch of beer bread did not come out well at all.  I cooked it to long and the taste was off.  So this is my second attempt and it came out great.

This bread is so easy to make.  There is not much kneading involved at all really.  I didn’t let my dough rise either.  It has a great taste and can be used as a burger bun or eaten with soup or chili.

This beer bread is:

• vegan
• buttery
• rich
• simple to make
