Easy Jalapeño Cheddar Bread
A savory, quick-to-make bread packed with cheesy goodness and a spicy jalapeño kick. Perfect for snacks or as a side to your favorite meal.
Equipment
- 9x5 inch loaf pan
- Mixing Bowls
- Wire Rack
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 tsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp onion powder
- 2 tbsp Parmesan cheese grated
- 1 cup Cheddar cheese shredded
- 1 jalapeno diced small
- 2 eggs room temperature
- 1 cup milk room temperature
- 1/2 cup butter melted
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan, then line it with parchment paper.
- In a spacious bowl, gently sift your flour and baking powder. Stir in the sugar, salt, onion powder, both cheeses, and the diced jalapeño.
- In a separate, smaller bowl, simply whisk together your eggs and milk until they're well combined.
- Gradually pour the egg and milk mixture into your dry ingredients. Add the melted butter and mix just until everything comes together. Avoid over-mixing.
- Spoon the batter evenly into your prepared loaf pan. You can press a few extra jalapeño slices on top before baking.
- Bake for 60 to 80 minutes. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top browns too quickly, cover it with aluminum foil.
- Let your bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
