For the Bread
- 3 cups All-Purpose Flour Can swap with whole wheat for a denser loaf.
- 1 tablespoon Baking Powder Ensure freshness for proper leavening.
- 1 teaspoon Salt Enhances flavor balance.
- 2 tablespoon Sugar Adds sweetness to complement savory ingredients.
- 1 teaspoon Cumin Infuses earthy warmth; can use coriander as substitute.
- 1 teaspoon Chili Powder Adjust for desired spice level.
- 1 cup Shredded Cheddar Cheese Use sharp cheddar for a bolder flavor.
- 2 pcs Jalapeños Modify quantity for personal heat preference.
- 1 cup Beer Preferably an ale or lager, can use non-alcoholic beer.
Method
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) to ensure even baking.
In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, cumin, and chili powder until well combined.
In another bowl, combine the beer, diced jalapeños, and shredded cheddar cheese. Stir gently to mix.
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir just until combined—avoid overmixing.
Transfer the dough into a greased loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
Bake for 45-55 minutes until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack.
