How to Make Fast Cheese Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 230°C (450°F). Grease a baking tray (approximately 30 x 20cm) with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together 400g all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking soda, and 1 teaspoon salt.
  3. Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients. Pour in 300ml buttermilk and mix with your hands until a soft, sticky dough forms. Add more buttermilk, 1 tablespoon at a time, if needed to achieve desired consistency.
  4. Transfer the dough to the prepared baking tray. Gently shape into a loaf approximately 30 x 20cm (you can roll it out or press it down with your fingers).
  5. Brush the top of the loaf with 1 tablespoon of olive oil (optional) and sprinkle generously with 150g grated cheddar cheese (or your favorite cheese).
  6. Bake for 10 minutes at 230°C (450°F), then reduce the oven temperature to 200°C (400°F) and bake for another 15-20 minutes, or until the bread is firm to the touch and golden brown.
  7. Remove from oven and let cool slightly on a wire rack before slicing and serving. Delicious served warm with potato soup!
