Chadder Quick Bread Recipe

Soft and full of flavor, serve Cheddar Quick Bread warm with butter for a side dish that will quickly turn into a family favorite.

Quick Bread Tips:

Use freshly shredded cheddar cheese because pre-shredded has a flour/non-stick coating on it which prevents it from melting well in a loaf of bread like this.

Get creative! Add fresh or dried herbs, like parsley, or chives. Switch up cheeses, etc.

Quick breads are (almost) fool proof. Just watch that you don’t overdue the amount of liquids when adding flavors and ingredients.
