Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 2 ½ cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 ¾ cups (220 grams) all-purpose flour
- 1 cup milk (whole or 2%)
- 4 tablespoons (56 grams) butter, melted
- 1 egg
Dry Seasonings and Leavening Agents:
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon white granulated sugar
- ½ teaspoon table salt or sea salt
Topping Ingredients:
- 4 tablespoons (56 grams) butter, melted
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 teaspoon parsley flakes
Instructions
- Gather all dry ingredients in a spacious mixing vessel, thoroughly blending flour, granulated sweetener, leavening agent, and seasoning with a wire whisk.
- Incorporate shredded cheddar cheese, whisked egg, dairy liquid, and liquefied butter into the dry mixture, stirring until a uniform batter forms.
- Liberally coat a rectangular baking vessel with culinary lubricant to prevent adherence.
- Transfer the creamy mixture into the prepared pan, ensuring an even distribution across the surface.
- Position the pan in a preheated thermal chamber calibrated to 350°F, allowing the bread to transform into a golden-hued delicacy.
- Monitor the bread’s progression, watching for a firm central region and bronzed exterior, approximately 35-40 minutes of cooking time.
- While the bread undergoes thermal transformation, craft a zesty enhancement by combining aromatic powdered seasonings with melted butter.
- Immediately upon extracting the bread from the oven, cascade the herbed butter concoction across the piping hot surface.
- Allow the freshly baked creation to rest within its vessel for a brief ten-minute interval, permitting initial cooling and structural stabilization.
- Carefully extract the bread, preparing to slice and serve this savory, cheese-infused delicacy.
Notes
- Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for optimal mixing and texture.
- Grate the cheddar cheese fresh for maximum flavor and melting quality.
- Use a sharp knife to check doneness by inserting it into the center – it should come out clean.
- Brush the garlic butter topping generously for an intense, savory coating.
- Store wrapped tightly at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain moisture.
- Can be frozen for up to 2 months – wrap securely in plastic wrap and aluminum foil before freezing.
