A breathtakingly fundamental recipe resulting in a light, evenly-textured, slightly sour, fragrant loaf.
Lightly mix three cups of self-rising flour with a 12-ounce can of beer. I used Miller Lite (I think). Pour half the beer in a bowl, then alternate flour and beer. Add a teaspoon each salt and sugar. Blend until just mixed, a little lumpy and bubbly.
Pour into a well-greased loaf pan lined with parchment paper and bake at 350 in a preheated oven for about an hour, until it thumps hollow. Brush with melted butter while warm.
