I've been planning on experimenting with Bob's Red Mill Hearty Whole Grain Bread Mix and subbing Redbridge for the water. If I get around to it this weekend, I'll post the results. I miss beer bread too!

What is beer bread? I guess by the name of it, it's obvious, but I've never heard of it.

I used to use: 3 cups Self rising flour, 1 C sugar and a can of beer. So I would think you could use an gluten-free flour mix, add Baking powder(I think, I saw somewhere you could use either baking soda or powder to make a self rising flour).And use redbride of course!

Hi melrobsings.
I just bought the new cookbook "Bon Appetit - Without the Wheat" by Julie Ambrose and she has a recipe for Cinnamon Raisin Beer Bread! Here it is...
3 c gluten-free flour
3 tsp xanthan gum
1 c granulated sugar
1/4 c brown sugar
2 tsp cinnamon
3 tsp gluten-free baking powder
1 1/2 tsp salt
1 tsp gluten-free vanilla
1 c raisins
12 oz. bottle gluten-free beer
Preheat oven to 350. In a medium mixing bowl, combine the gluten-free flour, xan gum, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cinnamon, baking powder and salt. Make a well in the center and slowly pour in the gluten-free beer and vanilla. Stir until just combined. Fold in the raisins. Pour into an ungreased 8" loaf pan. Bake for 1 hour, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Cool before serving.
This recipe really caught my eye and I can't wait to try it.
Good luck!

I've made beer bread in my wheat days but I never heard of cinnamon bread bread. Please let us know how it turns out--- sounds interesting....
Let's see would that count for serving minors alcohol in their cinnamon bread for breakfast before school? Hey, it might even slow down the hyper-active kid....
Its kinda like I don't drink --- only when I take communion at church.....................
Oh well here is a joke now!!!!
The Sunday morning sermon is short & sweet:
Preacher: If I had all the beer in the world, I'd throw all into the river. If I had all the wine in the world, I'd throw it in the river (shaking his fist into the air & raisiing his voice) Thirdly ( proclaiming loudly) If I had all the whiskey in the world, I throw it all into the river!!!!!!!! AMEN.
The deacon quitely stands & announces the last hymn of the day: Let us sing hynm #365-------- Lets all meet at the River....................
Too cute not to pass on....
