Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1 tbsp baking powder
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh herbs like parsley, chives, or thyme
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 1 large egg

Method
 

  1. Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan so your bread doesn’t stick!
  2. Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
  3. Add the Cheese and Herbs: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and your choice of fresh herbs until they’re well dispersed.
  4. Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, melted butter, and egg.
  5. Combine Wet and Dry Mixes: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to over-mix; we want to keep that fluffy texture!
  6. Pour Into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
  7. Bake: Place the loaf pan in the oven and bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm, and watch it disappear!
