- Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan. This is where the magic happens!
- Step 2: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, dried parsley, salt, and black pepper. This blend creates a wonderful base for your bread.
- Step 3: Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese until it’s evenly mixed throughout. Trust me, you want every bite to have a cheesy delight!
- Step 4: In a separate bowl, combine the melted butter, milk, and egg. Mix well to ensure everything is blended nicely.
- Step 5: Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay!
- Step 6: Transfer the batter to your prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Step 7: Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Your kitchen will smell heavenly!
- Step 8: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Patience is key here!
Notes
Once your bread is cooled, store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you want it to last longer, you can freeze it for up to a month. Just wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and then foil to prevent freezer burn.
