Ingredients

• 2 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 4 tablespoons Unsalted butter, melted
• 1 teaspoon Garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon Onion powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
• 1.5 cups Low sodium cheddar cheese, shredded
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 1 Large egg
• 2 tablespoons Chives, chopped

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan with a little melted butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and granulated sugar. These dry ingredients will form the base of your bread.

Step 3

Add the garlic powder, onion powder, and ground black pepper to the flour mixture, and stir to combine well. This helps distribute the seasoning evenly throughout the bread.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted unsalted butter, whole milk, and egg until well combined. Ensure the butter is cooled to avoid cooking the egg.

Step 5

Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet mixture. Stir until almost fully combined but be careful not to overmix.

Step 6

Gently fold in the shredded low sodium cheddar cheese and chopped chives into the batter until evenly distributed. The cheese will add pockets of flavor throughout the bread.

Step 7

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.

Step 10

Serve warm or at room temperature as a side dish or snack. Enjoy the deliciously cheesy and savory flavors of your low sodium cheddar cheesebread!
