Bacon Cheddar Beer Bread

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 3 tablespoons sugar
• 1 1/4 cups shredded cheese (I used Cheddar, but a mixture with Monterey Jack and Colby included would be great)
• 12 ounces beer
• 4 slices bacon, cooked and chopped (1/4 c real bacon bits)
• 2 tablespoons butter, melted

1. Preheat oven to 350u0b0.
2. Prepare bread pan by greasing with butter; set aside.
3. In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar with a whisk. Make a well in the center; add bacon, about 3/4 of cheese and beer into the well.
4. Stir mixture with a spoon until combined.
5. Pour mixture into prepared bread pan; add remaining cheese and drizzle with 1 tablespoon of butter.
6. Bake for 30 minutes; remove from oven and drizzle remaining butter over the top.
7. Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes or until browned on top and loaf thumps when you tap the top.
8. Remove to a wire rack and allow to cool for 5 minutes. Remove from pan and allow to cool on wire rack. You can brush with more butter if you choose.
