I love this recipe for Cheddar Chive Beer Bread. It’s easy and delicious. The chives add a savory twist to the bread.
Use a good flavor of bottled beer! It’ll make a difference. Non alcoholic beer may be substituted.

This quick and easy bread is as delicious as it is simple. Perfect to serve with soup or chili at a moment's notice.

- In a large bowl, whisk together first 3 ingredients. Stir in cheese and beer, and pour into a lightly greased 9x5-inch loaf pan.Bake for 45 minutes. Pour melted butter over the top and bake an additional 10 minutes.
Notes
- In a pinch, you can use chopped green onion tops in place of chives.
- For plain beer bread, omit the chives and cheese.

This is our favorite bread! I make one with chives and one with jalapeños for larger get together. Instead of bread, many times I make muffins. It tends to go farther that way. So easy and delicious!
