Preheat your oven to 350Β°F (175Β°C) and grease a standard 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or nonstick cooking spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, dried parsley, and sugar. Whisk to combine evenly.
Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, making sure it's evenly distributed throughout the dry mixture.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and melted butter until fully blended.
Pour the wet ingredients into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently mix with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Do not overmixβthe batter will be thick and slightly lumpy.
Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula for even baking.
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 10 minutes. Then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy on its own, or pair it with soups, salads, or your favorite spreads!
