I know everyone is struggling to make bread given the scarcity of yeast during this pandemic. I am learning about sourdoughs, but think it might take me awhile to adapt that one. In the meantime, I was thinking of my Grandma’s wheaten bread and a beer bread I had ages ago. Somewhere between those two was a delicious low pro option to get us through this crazy time. Staci and Eddie, this means you have to spare a beer for cooking. But on a plus note there is a little left over in the bottle which justifies drinking at an earlier hour without judgement.

- Preheat oven to 375. Grease a bread pan with butter.
- Combine baking mix, metamucil, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl.
- In a medium sized bowl combine THREE tablespoons of the melted butter, honey, plain coconut yogurt and beer.

- Pour batter in the prepared pan. Smooth the top with the back of a spoon. Pour remaining tablespoon of butter on top.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until a toothpick or piece of dried spaghetti inserted through the loaf comes out fairly clean (ok if there are a few crumbs sticking to it but not uncooked batter).
- Remove from oven and let cool for 5 minutes on a cooling rack before removing from the pan. Let cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Reader Q&A:
Q: Can i substitute vanilla so delicious yogurt and not add the honey? A: It will have a sweeter vs savory profile with the addition of vanilla — which is not necessarily a bad thing, but might be weird with certain fillings if making a sandwich.
