Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups (240g) all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon (15g) baking powder
- 1 teaspoon (5g) salt
- 1 tablespoon (12g) granulated sugar
- 1 cup (240ml) milk
- 2 large eggs
- 1/4 cup (60g) unsalted butter, melted
- 1 1/2 cups (150g) grated cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or Monterey Jack)
- Optional: herbs (e.g., parsley or rosemary)
- Optional: additional 1/4 cup (25g) grated cheese for topping
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease your loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
- In another bowl, combine milk, eggs, and melted butter. Whisk until smooth.
- Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients. Stir gently with a spatula until just combined.
- Fold in grated cheese and optional herbs. Ensure the cheese is evenly distributed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly. Sprinkle additional cheese on top.
- Bake for 40-45 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center—it should come out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Slice and serve warm.
Notes
[‘Use fresh cheese for better melting and flavor.’, ‘Avoid overmixing to prevent dense bread.’, ‘Experiment with herbs like parsley or rosemary for added flavor.’, ‘Let the bread cool slightly before slicing for easier handling.’]
