Gathering the ingredients for cheesy bread is half the fun! Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese (or your favorite cheese)
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 3/4 cup milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder (optional for extra flavor)
- Chopped fresh herbs like parsley or chives (optional for garnish)
Feel free to substitute the cheeses based on what you have at home—cheddar, gouda, or even a spicy pepper jack can add an interesting twist!
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a baking dish or line it with parchment paper.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Add the shredded mozzarella and grated Parmesan cheese to the dry ingredients, mixing well to combine.
- In a separate bowl, mix the melted butter and milk until fully combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Do not overmix; a few lumps are perfectly okay!
- If you’re using garlic powder, fold it in at this stage for an extra kick of flavor.
- Transfer the mixture to your prepared baking dish, smoothing it out evenly.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. Garnish with fresh herbs if desired.
As you bake, let the aroma fill your kitchen—trust me, it’s heavenly and will make everyone gather around, eager for a taste!
