Ingredients

• 1 cup Warm water
• 2 tablespoons Olive oil
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1.5 teaspoons Salt
• 3 cups Bread flour
• 2.25 teaspoons Dry active yeast
• 1 cup Cheddar cheese, shredded
• 2 medium Jalapeños, finely chopped
• 1 teaspoon Smoked paprika
• 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Add the warm water, olive oil, granulated sugar, and salt to the bread machine pan in the recommended order for your machine (typically wet ingredients first).

Step 2

Add the bread flour, making sure it evenly covers the liquid ingredients.

Step 3

Sprinkle the dry active yeast over the flour, ensuring it does not come into direct contact with the liquid below.

Step 4

Set your bread machine to the 'Basic' or 'White Bread' setting with a medium crust, and start the cycle.

Step 5

About 5 minutes into the kneading process, open the lid and scrape down any flour from the sides of the pan if necessary.

Step 6

As the dough begins to form, add the shredded cheddar cheese, chopped jalapeños, smoked paprika, and garlic powder (if using). Allow the bread machine to fully incorporate these ingredients during the kneading process.

Step 7

Close the lid and allow the bread machine to complete the rest of the cycle, including kneading, rising, and baking.

Step 8

Once the bread is finished, carefully remove it from the pan and let it cool on a wire rack for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

Step 9

Serve warm or at room temperature. Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days, or freeze for up to 2 months.
