Cheese Quick Bread (can be spicy too)

[Guest guest]

This is quick and most delicious. We like it with spaghetti or a salad.

Cheese Quick Bread

 

2 cups flour

1 tbsp. granulated sugar

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1/2 tsp. salt

1/4 cup cold butter or margarine

2 cups shredded sharp cheddar or Monterey jack cheese

(for a spicy bread use a pepper cheese!)

1 cup milk or soy milk

1 egg, beaten

Optional: 1 tsp. seasoned pepper blend (I use it)

 

Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Mix dry ingredients; cut in butter until mixture

resembles coarse crumbs. Stir in cheese. Add combined milk and egg; stirring

just until moistened. Spoon the batter into a greased and floured 9x5-inch loaf

pan. Bake 45 minutes. Cool in pan 5 minutes; remove from pan. Cool on wire rack.
