Doritos beer and cheddar bread combines three of my favorite things in one quick bread.
doritios beer and cheddar bread
Oh yes I did. I paid homage to my favorite junk food, Doritos, by baking it in bread. But not just any bread. Beer and cheddar bread. If I added bacon on top, it might just have been the best food combination ever in the universe. (Next time.)
This Doritos beer and cheddar bread is easy to make, crazy-delicious, a perfect crust on top, and soft inside.
For the beer, I used a “dry-hopped” petite saison beer, because that’s what my husband handed me. Choose any beer you like drinking, ale or lager. IPAs are a good choice.
This junk food version of beer and cheddar bread is so so very delicious. Serve with a pat of butter and a cup of coffee, or make it part of your dinner and serve with soups, chilis or stews.
Love this? (I mean, yes, of course you do.) Try this two-ingredient pesto bread. Or, if beer and cheese is your thing, you’ll want to try this easy beer and cheese fondue.
how to make Doritos beer and cheddar bread
you will need:
- bag of Doritos (you’ll use about 3/4 of a 10-ounce bag)
- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 3 tablespoons sugar
- 1 1/4 cup freshly-shredded sharp cheddar cheese, divided
- 1 12-ounce beer
- 3 tablespoons butter
what to do:
Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Grease a bread pan.
In a food processor, process Doritos (two to three cups at a time) until you have 2 cups of crushed Doritos, plus an additional tablespoon.
In a large bowl, mix 2 cups of crushed Doritos, the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir in the beer. Stir in 1 cup of shredded cheese. Mix well and pour into the bread pan, gently patting the top of the mixture so it’s even.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter. Stir in a tablespoon of crushed Doritos. Brush on top of the bread. Sprinkle an additional 1/4 cup of shredded cheddar on top.
Bake until cooked through, 40 to 45 minutes.
