Submitted by Mary. My family LOVES Dassant Beer Bread and we use it for everything. I developed this recipe as my go-to company breakfast. I can make it the night before, pop it in the oven and everyone thinks I am a genius! It is even good with leftover bread bread. If I have slices left over, I put them in a freezer bag and save to make this baked french toast.
