We are making guinness bread using a whole can of guinness.

Measure out 450 grams of wholemeal flour and place it in a bowl.

Add 2 teaspoons of bicarbonate soda to the flour.

Add 25 grams of porridge oats to the mixture.

Add 4 tablespoons of sugar to the dry ingredients.

Add 80 grams of chopped walnuts to the dry ingredients.

Mix all the dry ingredients together until well combined.

Melt 50 grams of butter and 1 tablespoon of treacle together.

Pour the melted butter and treacle into the dry ingredients.

Add 400 milliliters of guinness to the mixture.

Stir the mixture until it forms a dense, heavy dough.

Prepare a baking tin (note: the creator mentions struggling with paper liners and suggests greasing the tin instead).

Transfer the dough into the baking tin.

Preheat the Traeger to 190 degrees Celsius (about 375°F).

Place the baking tin with the dough onto the Traeger grill.

Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, checking for a hollow sound when tapping on the tin.

After baking, wrap the bread in a tea towel to rest.

Let the bread rest for about 20 minutes before slicing.

Slice the bread open to check the texture.
