Bread Pan
mixing bowl
whisk
- 2 1/2 cups All Purpose Flour
- 1/2 cup Whole Wheat Flour
- 1 tbsp Baking Powder
- 1 tsp Kosher Salt
- 350 ml Pale Ale Beer
- 1/4 cup Honey
- 8 tbsp Butter melted and slightly cooled, divided
- 2 tsp Oats for sprinkling
Preheat oven to 375 F. Grease a 9x5 loaf pan with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk the flours, baking powder, and salt. Add the beer, honey, and 4 tbsp of melted butter and mix with a wooden spoon until well combined. The batter should be thick.
Transfer batter to the prepared pan and smooth the top. Pour remaining of 4 tbsp melted butter over the top and sprinkle with oats.
Bake until the bread is lightly browned and a toothpick inserted in the centre comes out clean, 45-50 minutes. Cool the bread in the pan set on a cooling rack for 10 minutes. Remove the bread from the pan, slice and serve warm. Store wrapped tightly at room temperature for up to 3 days or in the fridge for up to a week.
