Dairy Free Ginger Beer Bread
You don’t need alcoholic beer to make this simple five ingredient beer bread. Ginger beer will make a quick, satisfying loaf of carbs with a spicy twist.

Did you ever go to one of those Tastefully Simple parties where they sell pre-made mixes for things like dips, cookies and things like beer bread? I feel like it was super huge when I was in high school and our pantry was stocked with it. Anyway, they always said at the parties that you didn’t have to use beer to make the beer bread.

For some reason that stuck in my head, and I when I wanted a bread to go with our baked potato soup, it popped back from the depths of my brain. I happened to have ginger beer in the pantry from some Moscow mules I made a while back, and I had the batter for the bread in the oven within 10 minutes. It was perfect timing.

Keep in mind, this beer bread is best for dipping or eating fresh. It doesn’t do that well in the toaster because it’s on the crumbly side. I think of that as a positive attribute, but I just wanted to let you know in case you were hoping to toast it for breakfast. Although, a toaster oven might work just fine.
