No kneading, rolling, or cutting required—just mix, pour, and bake! This cheesy biscuit loaf is loaded with cheddar goodness and a hint of spice, making it an easy and delicious alternative to traditional biscuits. Perfect for breakfast, brunch, or as a savory side dish!
Ingredients:
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tsp salt
- ¼ tsp cayenne pepper
- ⅛ tsp black pepper
- 4 oz cheddar cheese, cut into ¼-inch cubes
- 1 ¼ cups milk
- ¾ cup sour cream
- 3 tbsp salted butter, melted
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
Instructions:
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with non-stick spray or butter. Set aside.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, cayenne pepper, and black pepper.
- Add Cheese: Gently toss the cheese cubes into the dry mixture, coating them evenly with flour.
- Combine Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, sour cream, melted butter, and egg until smooth.
- Make the Batter: Gradually fold the wet ingredients into the dry mixture. Stir gently until just combined—don’t overmix. The batter will be thick.
- Bake the Loaf: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top. Bake for 45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Cool and Serve: Remove from the oven and let the loaf cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool slightly before slicing and serving warm.
Tips:
- For extra flavor, brush the top of the loaf with melted butter and sprinkle with garlic powder or fresh parsley before serving.
- Use sharp cheddar for a bolder cheese flavor.
- Serve warm with softened butter for the ultimate biscuit loaf experience!
