Ingredients:
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tbsp baking powder
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp garlic powder (optional)
1 1/2 cups shredded cheese (cheddar, mozzarella, or your favorite blend)
Approximately 1 cup water
Instructions:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder. Stir well.
- Add cheese: Mix in the shredded cheese until evenly distributed.
- Add water gradually: Slowly pour in water while stirring until a sticky dough forms. You may not need the full cup.
- Shape the dough: Form into a round loaf and place on the prepared baking sheet.
- Score the top with an “X” using a sharp knife for even baking.
- Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until golden brown and the bread sounds hollow when tapped.
- Cool slightly before slicing. Serve warm for best taste.
Serving Tips:
Pair with tomato soup, creamy broccoli soup, or fresh garden salad.
