Green Chile Cheddar Beer Bread

I haven't posted a recipe using my Baking Mix in awhile. The Baking Mix is so versatile, you can use it for everything from Monster Cookies (my new favorite cookie!) to Buttermilk Biscuits to a Cobbler Topping  to Cheesy Biscuit Sticks and don't miss the quick and easy Cinnamon Coffee Cake! If you do a "search" for Baking Mix at the top of the blog you will find even more recipes. :)

I love making beer breads, they go together very quickly and you can get a wonderful loaf of homemade bread on the table in under an hour. I use a light tasting beer when I make beer breads, I don't want the flavor of the beer to be too overpowering. You can also use unflavored seltzer water if you don't want to use beer. I baked it in my favorite 2-quart casserole dish this time for a different presentation.

Green Chile Cheddar Beer Bread

3 cups Baking Mix
3/4 cup cornmeal
1 cup shredded Cheddar cheese
1/2 cup chopped green chiles
12 ounces beer
1 egg

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Generously grease a 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan or a 2-quart casserole dish. Mix dry ingredients in a large bowl, stir in cheese. Add beer, egg and green chiles; beat vigorously. The batter will be "shaggy." Pour batter into prepared pan. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pan; cool for 10 minutes on a wire rack. Serve warm.
