Guinness Bread

15 mins preparation, 45 mins cooking time

Famous to all those who know and love The Doyle Collection hotels, their homemade Guinness Bread is a staple on the menu at all restaurants across The Doyle Collection properties and is a nod to the collection’s proud Irish heritage. Served as a side or a light bite, this deliciously moorish bread has almost a cake-like texture and can be enjoyed as it is, or accompanied by smoked salmon for breakfast.

310g Whole Wheat Flour

410g White Flour

140g Rolled Oats

1 teaspoon Table Salt

2 ½ teaspoons Baking Soda

270g Milk

70g Black Treacle (or molasses)

140ml Guinness

Method

Preheat oven to 180c

Mix together the whole wheat flour, white flour, oats, salt and baking soda in a large bowl.

Use a pastry cutter to cut the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles small crumbs.

Add the milk, black treacle (or molasses) and Guinness, and mix until well combined.

Use cooking spray to coat 2 bread loaf pans, and pour the batter into the pans.

Sprinkle a little more oatmeal on top.

Bake at 180c for 45 minutes to an hour, until the centre is cooked through and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
