Can you taste the beer in beer bread?
The answer for this beer bread recipe is no. You absolutely can’t really taste the beer in this bread. Of course, this depends on the TYPE of beer you use as well. If you use a light beer, you will not be able to taste it at all. If you use a stout, or dark beer, the flavor will be a little more intense, but still subtle. The amount of beer that you’re adding is minimal, so it’s not a prominent flavor. What the beer does, mixed with the other leavening agents in the recipe, is combine and help the bread rise and gives is a very soft texture. If you make a beer bread without the leavening agent, like baking soda or baking powder, you will get dens, heavy bread.
What kind of pumpkin do you use in this pumpkin bread recipe?
In this pumpkin bread recipe, and in most pumpkin recipes, you use canned pumpkin puree, like Libby’s brand. While most beer bread recipes are savory, this is definitely a more sweet bread, and paired with the pumpkin pie spice that I like to add, it really works well as both a side dish or dessert!
