- 3 cups self-rising flour
- 1/2 cup white sugar
- 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle beer
- 3 tablespoons butter, melted (optional)
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan.
- Mix flour and sugar together in a bowl. Pour beer into a separate large bowl; add flour mixture and stir until moistened. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
- Bake in preheated oven until nearly set, 40 to 50 minutes. Pour melted butter over the top of the bread and continue baking until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 10 minutes more.
