Ingredients
  

For the loaf

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour About 240 g
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup shredded cheese Cheddar or your choice, about 113 g
  • 1 cup milk 240 ml
  • 1/4 cup vegetable oil 60 ml
  • 1 large egg

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan (8x4 or 9x5).
  • In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 tablespoon baking powder, and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Whisk briefly.
  • Stir in 1 cup shredded cheese until evenly distributed.
  • In another bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk, 1/4 cup vegetable oil, and 1 egg until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Baking

  • Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 30–35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Cooling and Serving

  • Allow the bread to cool in the pan for a few minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack.
  • Slice and serve warm.

Notes

Letting the bread cool briefly before slicing will yield neater slices. For a crisp cheesy crust, sprinkle extra cheese on top in the last 5 minutes of baking.
