- 45 minutes to make

From 101 cookbooks for this easy and tasty and healthy Hide ( named after a friend of the bakery ) bread which is similar to an English muffin in that if you don't toast it, it'll taste raw. The key to enjoying these delicious little breads (and I can’t emphasize this enough), is splitting them open, toasting them until they are deeply golden, then slathering them generously with butter (or drizzling with olive oil).

How to make it
- Adjust the oven rack to the middle position and preheat the oven to 375F degrees.
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper if desired.
- Place all the dry ingredients in an (extra-large) bowl, stir them together, and make a well in the center.
- Add the beer and the buttermilk.
- Mix with the handle of a wooden spoon until a thick, wet batter forms.
- Sprinkle a layer of flour over the top.
- Turn the batter onto a lightly floured surface and roll it into a loose log about 2 inches in diameter.
- Cut it into 1 1/2-inch-thick slices and par them down with your hands to form patties.
- Place the patties on the baking sheet and bake them for 45 minutes, until golden brown.

- To serve, slice each patty in half, toast it well, and smear with butter (: a sprinkling of salt works wonder here as well).
- And seriously, make sure to TOAST IT !
