Bacon Cheddar Beer Bread-The addition of Bacon and Cheddar to this bread takes it over the top!
I’m not a beer drinker at all. I never have been. Back in my younger days, when you’d go to a party, it would be all about the beer. I mean, I get it. Beer in keg form is Cheap! I was the odd ball, I’d have my own stash of wine coolers, the berry flavor was always my favorite.
Now they’ve got all these flavored beers but I’ve just never ventured out to try them.
I’m pretty mush the same with wine. Now I do like a nice Moscato, but I only ever have wine on holidays. Or the occasional quiet Saturday night with a good book and no kids around. So for those rare occasions I buy the mini bottles. You know the ones that come 4 to a pack.
But I do love to bake and cook with booze. The flavors that emerge from adding a little wine to a sauce, omg! I could lick the pan clean! Using beer, with all it’s bubbliness to bread batter, amazing!
I’ve always been a fan of Beer Bread, adding the cheddar and bacon to it was just a natural progression. You could also add some green onion, some bell pepper or change the bacon out for ham.
I buy beer just so I can make things like this!

Chrystal @ YUM eating says
This bread looks amazing!
I was a cheap beer drinker when I was younger – but only after I had a few flavorful beverages. Now that I am older it seems I pretty much stick to Guinness. Everything else tastes so awful. A few local brews aren’t too bad. I would soon much rather cook with my booze!
