Pour the warm water into the bread machine pan.
Add the granulated sugar and salt to the water.
Drizzle in the olive oil.
Add the all-purpose flour to the mixture, ensuring it covers the liquid ingredients completely.
Make a small well in the center of the flour and add the active dry yeast into the well.
Sprinkle the shredded sharp cheddar cheese, finely chopped onion, dried onion flakes, and ground black pepper around the edges of the pan, avoiding the yeast.
Insert the bread pan into the bread machine and close the lid.
Set the bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting with a medium crust and start the machine.
Once the bread machine beeps to indicate the mix-in cycle (if applicable to your machine), ensure the cheese and onions are evenly incorporated by checking through the viewing window.
Allow the bread to finish its baking cycle.
Carefully remove the bread pan from the machine using oven mitts and let the bread cool for 10 minutes in the pan.
Remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
