Cheddar Cheese Quick Bread Recipe: Soft, Cheesy, and Perfectly Golden

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.
