Ingredients

• 3 cups All-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
• 1 teaspoon Dried Italian herbs
• 0.5 cup Sun-dried tomatoes (chopped)
• 1 cup Shredded cheese (cheddar or mozzarella)
• 1 cup Whole milk
• 0.25 cup Olive oil (preferably from the sun-dried tomato jar)
• 2 pieces Large eggs
• 2 tablespoons Fresh parsley or basil (optional, chopped)

Directions

Step 1

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

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, sugar, and dried Italian herbs until well combined.

Step 3

Stir in the chopped sun-dried tomatoes and shredded cheese to evenly distribute them throughout the dry mixture.

Step 4

In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, olive oil, and eggs until smooth and well-blended.

Step 5

Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently with a spatula or spoon until just combined—do not overmix.

Step 6

If using, fold in the chopped fresh parsley or basil for an added layer of flavor.

Step 7

Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan and smooth out the top with a spatula.

Step 8

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 9

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

Step 10

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. Enjoy your Sun Dried Tomato Cheese Bread as a standalone snack or paired with soups, salads, or dips.
