Cuisine: American
Serves: 1 loaf
Ingredients
- 2 cups gluten-free all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
- 1 cup milk
- 1/4 cup olive oil
- 3 eggs
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with olive oil or line it with parchment paper for easy removal.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine 2 cups of gluten-free all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon of baking powder, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Whisk the dry ingredients together until well mixed and there are no lumps.
- Add 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the dry mixture. Stir gently to distribute the cheese evenly throughout the flour mixture.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 cup of milk, 1/4 cup of olive oil, and 3 eggs until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Once the batter is combined, pour it into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly with a spatula.
- Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 40 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- After baking, remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely.
- Once cooled, slice the cheddar cheese bread and serve it warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your delicious gluten-free cheddar cheese bread!
Tips
- Always use fresh, high-quality gluten-free flour blend to ensure the best texture and taste.
- Don't overmix the batter - this can lead to a dense, tough bread. Mix just until ingredients are combined.
- Use a toothpick or cake tester to check doneness - it should come out clean when inserted into the center.
- Let the bread cool completely before slicing to help it maintain its structure.
- For extra flavor, try adding herbs like rosemary or thyme to the batter.
- Store the bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days, or freeze for longer preservation.
- Serve warm with a pat of butter for an extra indulgent experience!
