Irish Guinness Brown Bread
I'm not a huge bread person I'm more of a potato girl myself, but this one is definitely worth for-going the potatoes for the bread! My kids begged for it every night and couldn't get enough. This is great for breakfast with some Irish salted butter or perfect with dinner. It could even be used as a small hearty sandwich. Either way this bread is it!! And I had people begging for the recipe so I thought I would share it again!
It's the perfect recipe for all your upcoming St. Patty's day celebrating. It makes the best Avocado mash! Pile up your veggies with some hummus between 2 slices for lunch. Sop up your favorite soup with it or just save it for dessert... warm it up, slather on butter and jam! Delish!!
