Calories: 166kcal
Ingredients
- 3 cups (330 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 2 teaspoons kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 can or bottle (12 ounces) beer, room temperature
- ½ cup (113 g) cowboy butter, cold
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Spray a 9×5-inch loaf pan with baking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, kosher salt, and garlic powder. Whisk together to evenly distribute the dry ingredients.
- Pour in the beer and stir until all the ingredients are just combined and no dry flour remains. The batter will be thick and sticky.
- Spoon the batter into your prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly using a spatula.
- Cut the cold cowboy butter into tablespoon-sized slices and place them evenly over the top of the batter.
- Bake for 40 to 50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few crumbs, but no wet batter. Near the end of baking, you should see about ½ inch of melted butter bubbling around the edges.
- Let the bread rest in the pan on the counter for 5 to 10 minutes. This allows the butter to soak back into the loaf for extra flavor and moisture.
- Carefully remove the bread from the pan and let it cool slightly before slicing.
- Serve warm for the most flavor.
