One Bowl Chocolate Chip Beer Bread

Fall baking isn’t as much about the food as it is about the fact that we can turn the oven on again. Just days ago, it seems, we were all googling "no-cook dinners" and hoping the triple-digit heat would pass soon.

Then, as if overnight, the weather calmed, we awoke to rain on a garden that still held the last gasps of summer produce, and we’re again free to wear sweaters and pull on the wellies.

Let us bake again, slow down for a second as out lives orient to the pulse of this part of the year. Just slow down, take a day away from the obligation we force on ourselves and just be.

Just a reminder that the world will still be there when you rejoin, that it’ll be fine without you for a bit, and making something just because you want to has a way of healing the chips that the daily grind works into your soul.

A day in the kitchen, an audiobook and the smell of things baking in the oven has a way of calming a storm inside us, bringing calmer waters and even has the added bonus of warm baked goods to give as a peace offering to those in our lives that love us even when we’re difficult.

How about using a chocolate stout?

That would work! Just be aware that the bread will turn brown, if that doesn’t bother you, then it’s fine.

Looks and sounds delish. Thank you for the recipe. Wondering if you have a sour cream pound cake recipe or if not one you’d recommend?

You can serve it however you’d like. Afternoon snack, breakfast treat, late night with beer and Netflix. It’s versatile.

Can it be baked in a Bundt pan

Reply

It can but I’m not sure if it’s enough batter to fill the bundt pan so it may be a little short.
