Ingredients

For the Bread:

1 & 3/4 cups all-purpose flour spooned and leveled
1 tablespoon granulated sugar
1 tablespoon baking powder
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
3 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese
1 cup whole milk
1 large egg
1/4 cup unsalted butter melted

For the Topping:

1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
1/4 teaspoon dried parsley
1/8 teaspoon garlic powder
1/8 teaspoon onion powder
1/8 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line a 9x5 loaf pan with parchment paper, with a slight overhang on two sides and spray the paper with nonstick spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until combined. Add the cheddar cheese and stir it together so the cheese is coated in the flour mixture. Set aside.
In a small bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter; pour into the dry mixture and stir it until just combined. (Don't over-mix or the bread could end up tough and not tender.)
Pour the mixture into the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top.
Bake for 35-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
While the bread is baking, make the topping: whisk together the butter, dried parsley, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
Remove loaf pan from the oven and set on a wire rack. Immediately brush the bread with the butter topping.
Let the bread cool for 5 minutes in the pan then take it out of the pan and cool more. You can enjoy this bread warm or at room temperature.
Slice and enjoy!
