Step 1 – Preheat Oven
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease or spray a loaf pan.
Step 2 – Prepare Dry Ingredients
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together:
- Flour
- Baking powder
- Sugar
- Garlic powder
- Salt
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese. Set aside.
Step 3 – Prepare Wet Ingredients

In a separate bowl, whisk together:
- Milk
- Egg
- Melted butter
Step 4 – Combine Ingredients
Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix, or the bread may be dense.
Step 5 – Bake
Spoon or pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake in preheated oven for 45–50 minutes, until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
Step 6 – Cool and Serve
Allow the bread to cool on a wire rack. Remove from pan, slice, and serve warm. Enjoy as is or with butter for extra indulgence.
