**Cheese Bread**
**Ingredients:**
– 3 cups all-purpose flour
– 1 tablespoon baking powder
– 1 teaspoon salt
– 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
– 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
– 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
– 1/2 cup grated mozzarella cheese
– 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
– 1 cup milk
– 1/4 cup olive oil
– 1 large egg
**Instructions:**
1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside.
2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and dried oregano. Mix well to ensure all the ingredients are evenly distributed.
3. Add the grated cheddar, mozzarella, and Parmesan cheeses to the flour mixture. Stir until the cheese is evenly coated with the flour mixture.
4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, olive oil, and egg until well combined.
5. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Use a wooden spoon or spatula to gently fold the ingredients together until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are okay.
6. Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for about 45-50 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Once baked, remove the Cheese Bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Slice the Cheese Bread and serve warm. Enjoy the cheesy goodness!
**Cheese Bread is best enjoyed fresh, but any leftovers can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days. To reheat, simply pop a slice in the toaster or microwave for a warm and delicious treat. Get creative with your Cheese Bread by adding herbs, spices, or even a sprinkle of extra cheese on top before baking. This recipe is versatile and can be adapted to suit your preferences, so feel free to experiment and make it your own. So, gather your ingredients, put on some music, and let the smell of baking cheese bread fill your home with comfort and joy. Happy baking!
