This delicious cheesy delight bread is a fantastic dish that's sure to impress. Made with all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, it combines great flavors and textures for a memorable meal.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite)
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil or melted butter
- 1 large egg
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional)
- 1 teaspoon dried herbs (like oregano or thyme, optional)
Instructions
- Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a large mixing bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and dried herbs, whisking until everything is well combined.
- Incorporate the shredded cheese into the flour mixture, folding it in until all the cheese is evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, vegetable oil (or melted butter), and the egg together until the mixture is smooth.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined, being careful not to overmix.
- Prepare a 9×5-inch loaf pan by greasing it with cooking spray or butter, or by lining it with parchment paper.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top. Optionally, add extra cheese on top for an additional cheesy layer.
- Bake the bread for 30-35 minutes, or until it turns golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top is browning too quickly, cover it with foil.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before turning it out onto a wire rack to cool completely.
- After cooling for at least 20 minutes, slice the bread using a serrated knife.
