Ingredients
- 3/4 cup unsweetened yoghurt
- 1 egg
- 50 gram butter, melted
- 2 cup high-grade flour
- 2 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 100 gram grated or crumbled tasty cheese (parmesan, blue vein, cheddar, feta)
- milk or water, to brush
- salt to sprinkle
- butter and fruit jam, to serve
Method
- 1Preheat oven to 180°C. Line a loaf tin with baking paper. Grease the bottom and sides of the tin.
- 2Beat the yoghurt, egg and melted butter together.
- 3Sift the flour, baking powder and salt into a large bowl. Add the cheese and combine. Pour in the yoghurt mix, then stir until just combined.
- 4Spoon into the loaf tin and smooth the top with the back of a moistened spoon. Brush with milk or water, then sprinkle with salt.
- 5Bake for about 45 minutes, then turn out and cook on a wire rack for a further 15 minutes, or until the bread sounds hollow when knocked.
- 6Serve cut into thick slices with lashings of butter and jam. The loaf can be eaten hot or cold.
Notes
Always use high-grade flour when making bread. It has a higher gluten content, which is important for achieving a decent and stable rise for your dough. Try cheese bread served with warm jam. It's sweet, salty and delicious!
