Ingredients

  • 2 cups All-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon Baking powder
  • 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
  • 0.5 teaspoons Salt
  • 0.5 cups Unsalted butter (chilled and cubed)
  • 1 cup Shredded cheddar cheese
  • 0.5 cup Diced roasted green chiles (canned or fresh)
  • 0.75 cups Buttermilk (cold)
  • 1 unit Egg (lightly beaten)
  • 2 tablespoons Unsalted butter (melted, for brushing)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt.

Step 3

Using a pastry cutter or your fingers, cut in the chilled, cubed butter until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.

Step 4

Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and diced roasted green chiles, ensuring they are evenly distributed.

Step 5

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the cold buttermilk and lightly beaten egg.

Step 6

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing to maintain a tender texture.

Step 7

Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it evenly and smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Remove the bread from the oven and immediately brush the top with melted butter for added flavor and a tender crust.

Step 10

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely or serving warm.
