Sesame Seed Beer Bread
Beer Breads are some of my favorite loaves of bread to bake. They’re easy, require few ingredients and taste delicious. For years I have made the same Whole Wheat Beer Bread and it has always been my “go to” recipe. ”Go to” until now… My favorite Whole Wheat Beer Bread recipe now has to share the spotlight. I have a new recipe that is equally delicious but with a different spin. I call it Sesame Seed Beer Bread. It’s made with all purpose white flour, Oregon brewed beer, and black and white sesame seeds.
My Sesame Seed Beer Bread has a pretty black sesame seed speckled center with a lovely mixed sesame seed top crust.
It slices nicely and goes great with leafy green salads and piping hot bowls of soup. I had a couple of slices toasted this morning for breakfast. It’s easy to make and tastes fabulous! Enjoy! Tessa
Ingredients:
- 3 cups all purpose flour
- 6 Tbs sugar
- 1 Tbs black sesame seeds
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 12 oz beer
- 1/2 Tbs black sesame seeds
- 1/2 Tbs white sesame seeds
- 1 1/2 tsp olive oil
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit. Mix together flour, sugar, 1 Tbs black sesame seeds, baking powder, salt, and baking soda in a medium sized bowl. Add beer and mix until lumps are gone. Don’t over mix. Add mixture to greased 9 x 5 inch baking pan. Sprinkle top with 1/2 Tbs black and 1/2 Tbs white sesame seeds. Drizzle with olive oil. Bake for 1 hour and 15 minutes or until done. Makes one fabulous loaf!
What a beautiful bread! The sesame seeds gives a nice taste to the bread!
Thank you Katarina!
Looks amazing, baking your own bread is so much better than the store bought bread!
Thank you Mary! I completely agree with you!
I bet it tastes good with butter when it’s warm :-)
Without a doubt :)!

Thank you Uru! It’s good to see you back!
Your bread looks really soft and delicious, the sesame seeds look like chocolate chips almost :)
Thank you Suzanne! I’m going to make another loaf this weekend :).
I’m convinced – I definitely will be making beer bread! Now that I’m making bread weekly, I’m always looking for interesting recipes to mix things up a bit. I do love this recipe! What type of beer did you use? Based on the light color of the bread, I would guess a lager. Being a sesame seed lover, this bread is perfect!
Hey MJ! You nailed it… Yes, I used a lager :).
