DILL BEER BREAD (GIFT IN A JAR)
My favorite Beer Bread variation, so good with soups. You really don't want to skip the melted butter. This recipe comes from The Perfect Mix by Diane Phillips, so is written as a Gift in a Jar - but of course, you could just mix it up and bake it for yourself, too! :) If you don't have self rising flour (like me!), here's a substitute: Recipe #5247. Time is for baking the bread.

Tips for Making Beer Bread Mix in a Jar:
- Choose the right beer. Any type of beer can be used, but lighter beers will produce a lighter bread, while darker beers will produce a more flavorful bread.
- Use fresh ingredients. The fresher the ingredients, the better the bread will taste. If you can, use organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Follow the instructions carefully. Each recipe is a little bit different, so be sure to read the instructions carefully before you start baking.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough. Just mix until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the bread at the right temperature. The baking temperature will vary depending on the recipe. Be sure to follow the recipe's instructions carefully.
- Let the bread cool before slicing. This will help the bread to hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.
