Ingredients

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon dried herbs (such as oregano or basil)
• 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, cold and cubed
• 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese
• 1/2 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 3/4 cup milk
• 1 large egg, beaten

Directions

1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease a loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, dried herbs, and black pepper.
3. Add the cold cubed butter to the flour mixture. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to cut the butter into the flour until it resembles coarse crumbs.
4. Stir in the shredded cheddar cheese, mozzarella cheese, and grated Parmesan cheese.
5. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and beaten egg. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
6. Transfer the dough to the greased loaf pan and spread it out evenly.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
8. Remove the cheese loaf from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes.
9. Carefully remove the loaf from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing and serving.
