Cheddar, Garlic and Jalapeno Beer Bread is easy to make non-yeasted bread with light, savory flavors and makes a terrific grilled cheese.
Cheddar, Garlic and Jalapeno Beer Bread
By Sue Lau | Palatable Pastime
This month is my first posting with the Bread Bakers group, and we will be baking breads of all sorts with different themes. The theme for this month is garlic, so I chose to do a simple beer bread with garlic flavor in addition to cheddar and jalapeno.
You might expect at first glance that this bread has a really spicy flavor and will be too hot for some, but it really is mild overall, and instead of blazing heat there is a gentle flavor of garlic, cheese and jalapeno, more in line with the flavors of ordinary bread.
That being said, this bread is great grilled up as a sandwich with pepper-jack cheese between two thin slices. It makes a great lunch or snack.

Your bread looks full of flavour and delicious! I like that the yeast in the beer doesn’t require the bread to prove! 🙂

I love beer bread and was thinking of making a couple of loaves. This will definitely be at least one of the loaves…warm with butter! YES!

Such a flavorful and yummy looking bread.

Maybe I should bake this for some of my beer loving, chilli loving cousins… Great combination.
Never tried making a bread with beer but would surely impress some of my beer and chilli loving cousins if I made this loaf for them.
Thanks! I’ve made a number of different kinds of beer breads and have yet to be disappointed!
That’s a beautiful bread, Sue. Welcome to #BreadBakers.
Thanks!
