Do you know what’s even better than drinking pumpkin beer? Making bread with it.
Taking a slice of warm, soft, pumpkin beer bread and dunking it into a big bowl of soup is pretty much the epitome of fall.
And if you can believe it, it gets even better: this is easiest bread recipe I’ve ever made. If you’re worried about things like yeast and kneading (or just don’t feel like waiting for the dough to rise)…this is the homemade bread for you!
