Irish Apple Beer Bread

1. 1

   Preheat the oven to 350 F. Butter and flour two standard size loaf pans.

2. 2

   In a large bowl using an electric mixer, cream together the butter and sugar until fluffy. Add the eggs, apple butter, beer and molasses and mix well.

3. 3

   In a separate bowl, whisk the flour, baking powder and salt together. Slowly add the dry ingredients into the wet mixture. Beat to combine.

4. 4

   Pour the batter evenly into the 2 prepared loaf pans. Bake for 60-70 minutes, until a toothpick inserted into the middle of the loaf comes out clean.

5. 5

   Cool in the loaf pans for 10 minutes before gently inverting the pans to release the loaves. Cool bread on a wire rack. Once completely cool, wrap well to store.
