Preheat the Oven: Begin by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan so your bread doesn’t stick!
Mix the Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until evenly combined.
Add the Cheese and Herbs: Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese and your choice of fresh herbs until they’re well dispersed.
Combine the Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, mix together the milk, melted butter, and egg.
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!
Pour Into Pan: Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
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.
Cool and Serve: Allow the bread to cool for a few minutes before slicing. Enjoy warm, and watch it disappear!
