Bountiful Irish Bread

Did you know that our Bountiful Beer Bread makes the best Irish Bread?

The below recipe comes from a 100% Irish fellow Tastefully Simple consultant named Eileen Kosar :)  She says she's had many types of Irish bread over the years, and they don't hold a shamrock to this one you can make with much less time with our Bountiful Beer Bread.  Here's the recipe in her words...

It is super simple.   I soak the raisins like my grandmother from Ireland did to make the best bread. I also save money by purchasing the store brand of raisins.

Preheat the oven.

Use 1 ½ cups of whatever milk you have in the fridge.   Pour the milk over 1 ½ cups of raisins that you have in a bowl that will contain the milk and raisins together.   Let them soak on the counter   for one hour.

Then, place I pouch of Bountiful Beer Bread in a bowl.   Pour the raisin/milk mixture over it. Mix for 30 seconds till your wet meets your dry ingredients.   Pour into a greased loaf pan.   Pour 1 or 2 tablespoons of melted butter over the top and bake as directed on the box.   375 degrees for 55 minutes.   It should be a nice golden brown when done and a toothpick inserted in the center should come out clean!

Leave in pan for 10 minutes, and then cool on a cooling rack. Serve plain or with real butter.

Happy St. Patrick’s Day!   Eileen
