Why You NEED This Recipe in Your Life!

  • Easy, Reliable Loaf: one bowl, one bread pan, no shaping. It bakes up tender with plenty of cheesy bites throughout.
  • Simple Dinner Upgrade! Serve it with soups, chili, pasta, or salads. It’s sturdy enough for dunking and scooping without falling apart.
  • Great Leftovers: This loaf slices, reheats in seconds, and toasts up beautifully. It stays flavorful, buttery, and crisp around the edges.

How to Make Cheddar Bay Biscuit Bread

This bread is super moist without being dense or crumbly. It’s easier than making the biscuits, especially since it uses ingredients you already have on hand. SO good, so easy, so quick!

  1. Prep: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Spray a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan with nonstick cooking spray. Whisk together flour, sugar, baking powder, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt in a large bowl.
  2. Wet Ingredients: Combine milk and the egg.
  3. Combine: Stir the milk mixture into the flour mixture along with the melted unsalted butter until combined.
  4. Mix and Pour: Stir in shredded cheddar cheese, then pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.
  5. Bake: Bake for 35-40 minutes, until baked through, and a toothpick comes out clean from the center of the loaf.
  6. Buttery Topping: Just before the loaf comes out of the oven, stir the salted butter, garlic powder, onion powder, and fresh chopped parsley. Then, brush over the top of the bread as soon as it comes out of the oven. Let the Cheddar Bay Biscuit bread rest for about 10 minutes before removing it from the pan and slicing.

Alyssa’s Pro Tip

Variation Tip: For a little heat, add a pinch of cayenne to the cheddar bay bread batter. For even more flavor, stir Italian seasoning into the garlic butter glaze.
