Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
- 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley (chopped)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh thyme (chopped)
- 1 cup Sharp cheddar cheese (shredded)
- 0.5 cup Parmesan cheese (grated)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 cup Whole milk
- 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, sugar, salt, baking powder, and baking soda. Mix well.
Stir in the chopped parsley and thyme to evenly distribute the herbs throughout the dry ingredients.
Add the sharp cheddar cheese and Parmesan cheese to the dry mixture and toss to coat the cheese lightly in the flour mixture.
In a separate medium-sized bowl, whisk together the eggs, milk, and melted butter until well combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Gently stir with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this could result in a dense bread.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Double Cheese and Herb Bread with butter or as a side dish with soups and salads.
