Cheesey beer bread
Cheesey beer bread
This could be embarrasing 'cos I am going to post this almost live
So if I end up with cheesey beer bricks you'll all get a laugh
Ingredients for two loaves
300ml of very yeasty wheat beer from the bottom of my FV
4 Table spoons cane sugar
This is what I got after adding the sugar to the beer
750g strong white bread flour
250g mature cheddar cheese, grated
75g skimmed milk powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp Mustard powder
2 eggs, beaten
Method,
Mix the flour, milk powder, salt and mustard in a large mixing bowl.
Make a well in the middle and add the eggs, slowly add the yeasty beer and mix well until you have a soft dough.
Turn the dough out onto a well floured surface and knead well for 10 minutes.
Place into a clean bowl and cover with a clean cloth and leave some where warm until doubled in size.(Approx 1 hour)
Here's the dough ready to go somewhere warm.
I am due to check on it in 1/2 hour.
Wish me luck

No idea Maybe its savoury cheesey beer cakeSounds tastey....do eggs normaly go in bread?
After one hour of proving we have this
I am not sure that it has doubled
But anyway on with the show
After another 5 minutes of kneading the dough was divided into two for the loaves
Another 45 minutes wait for it to rise again and then into the oven
Still, it gives me time to enjoy some more of these
Yes I do skim the headinthedark wrote:Fantastic! Do you get much of a beer flavour with this? I take it you skim your yeast head so that the yeast cake in the fermenter is free from trub?
No this wasn't particularly beery, I used wheat beer which isn't overly hoppy. Using the yeast beer left in the bottom of the FV from a pale ale or bitter would be good, it's beautifully cheesey though
