Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 2 teaspoons Caraway seeds
• 2 cups Shredded sharp cheddar cheese
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted)
• 2 pieces Eggs (large)
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.5 cup Greek yogurt (plain)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and caraway seeds until well combined.

Step 3

Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it is evenly distributed throughout the dry ingredients.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs lightly and then mix in the melted butter, milk, and Greek yogurt until smooth.

Step 5

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently with a spatula or wooden spoon until just combined. Be careful not to overmix the batter, as this could make the loaf dense.

Step 6

Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, smoothing out the top with a spatula.

Step 7

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.

Step 8

Remove the loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. This loaf pairs well with soups, salads, or as a standalone snack.
