Oh yes 😌 slow cooker beer bread—super easy, crusty, slightly sweet, and perfect with soups or just butter.
🍺 Slow Cooker Beer Bread
Ingredients (1 loaf)
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 2–3 tbsp sugar (optional, adds slight sweetness)
- 12 oz beer (1 can or bottle, any kind you like)
- 2 tbsp melted butter (for brushing top)
Instructions
- Prep slow cooker
Spray the inside with non-stick cooking spray or line with parchment. - Mix dry ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. - Add beer
Pour in beer and stir until just combined. Batter will be thick and sticky—don’t overmix. - Cook
- Pour batter into the slow cooker.
- Cover with lid slightly ajar (tuck a kitchen towel under lid to absorb condensation).
- Cook on high for 2–2½ hours or low for 3–3½ hours, until a toothpick comes out clean.
- Finish
Brush melted butter on top while still warm for a glossy crust. - Cool slightly & serve
Let cool 10–15 min before slicing.
Pro Tips
- Any beer works—dark beers give richer flavor, light beers give milder flavor.
- Optional add-ins: shredded cheddar, chopped herbs, garlic powder, or seeds on top.
- If you like a crustier top, remove lid for last 15–20 min.
I can also give a one-bowl ultra-easy version, a cheesy beer bread, or a mini slow cooker muffins twist 😏.
