This soft, flavorful bread is packed with melty cheddar and aromatic herbs, perfect as a side or enjoyed on its own. Ready in under an hour!
Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
2 tbsp fresh parsley, chopped
1 tbsp fresh thyme (or 1 tsp dried)
1 tbsp fresh rosemary (or 1 tsp dried)
1 cup milk
¼ cup melted butter
2 large eggs
Instructions:
Prep: Preheat oven to 355°F (176°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
Dry Mix: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt. Stir in cheddar cheese, parsley, thyme, and rosemary.
Wet Mix: In another bowl, whisk milk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth.
Combine: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mix. Gently fold until just combined (a few lumps are fine—overmixing makes dense bread!).
Bake: Transfer batter to the prepared pan. Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Serve: Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack. Slice and enjoy warm with butter, soup, or as a snack!
Tip: For extra flavor, sprinkle the top with more cheese and herbs before baking! �
