Ingredients:

  • 2 cups (250g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 tbsp (12g) baking powder
  • 1/2 tsp (3g) salt
  • 1/4 tsp (1g) garlic powder
  • 1 1/2 cups (170g) sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
  • 1/4 cup (25g) parmesan cheese, finely grated
  • 2 tbsp (8g) fresh parsley, chopped
  • 1 cup (245g) plain Greek yogurt
  • 1 large (50g) egg
  • 2 tbsp (30ml) milk

Instructions:

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until no clumps remain.
  3. Toss the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped parsley into the flour mixture, stirring until the cheese is lightly coated.
  4. In a separate large bowl, whisk together the plain Greek yogurt, egg, and milk until smooth.
  5. Fold the flour-cheese mixture into the wet ingredients using a spatula; stop mixing as soon as no dry flour streaks remain to avoid a dense loaf.
  6. Transfer the batter into a greased 9x5 inch loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Sprinkle the finely grated parmesan cheese evenly across the surface of the batter.
  8. Bake for 40–45 minutes until the top is mahogany-colored and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  9. Let the bread rest in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
