How to Make Savory Cheddar Bread

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease an 8x4 inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon baking powder, 1/2 teaspoon baking soda, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese, and 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese.
In a separate bowl, whisk together 1 large egg, 1 cup milk, and 1/4 cup melted unsalted butter.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread evenly.
Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean. If the top begins to brown too quickly, loosely tent with foil.
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. Enjoy!
