This flavorful quick bread is loaded with cheddar cheese and fresh herbs, creating a soft, golden loaf that pairs perfectly with soups or stews.

Savory Herb and Cheese Biscuit Loaf

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1/4 cup cold unsalted butter, cubed
  • 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh herbs (parsley or chives)
  • 1 cup whole milk

Instructions:

Step 1: Preheat and Prep: Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2: Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and sugar until well combined.

Step 3: Incorporate Butter: Add the cold butter cubes to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter in until the mixture looks like coarse crumbs.

Step 4: Add Cheese and Herbs: Stir in the shredded cheddar and chopped herbs, distributing them evenly.

Step 5: Add Milk: Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the milk. Gently stir until just combined; the dough will be thick.

Step 6: Bake: Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan and spread it evenly. Bake for 40–45 minutes, until the top is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Step 7: Cool and Serve: Let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then move it to a wire rack to cool completely. Slice and serve warm.
