I don’t buy Cheesy Herbed Garlic Bread anymore! Quick Recipe! (No yeast, no kneading, no machine)

butter

🥗Healthier: olive oil

💰Cheaper: margarine

Olive oil adds flavor and is lower in saturated fat.

mozzarella cheese

🥗Healthier: part-skim mozzarella

💰Cheaper: provolone cheese

Part-skim mozzarella reduces calories while maintaining meltiness.

parmesan cheese

🥗Healthier: nutritional yeast

💰Cheaper: grated pecorino

Nutritional yeast is a vegan alternative with a cheesy flavor.

Preheat the oven to 400°F.

Butter the baking pan using softened butter and a paper towel.

Line the pan with parchment paper, ensuring it has handles.

Butter the parchment paper.

Cut block cheese into slices and then cut those slices in half.

In a small bowl, combine 1 tablespoon each of thyme, oregano, and parsley.

Add 2 tablespoons of macadamia nut oil to the herbs and mix well.

In a separate bowl, sift together 2.5 cups of all-purpose flour, 3 tablespoons of baking powder, 1 teaspoon of baking soda, and 1 teaspoon of salt.

Whisk the dry ingredients to ensure even mixing.

Incorporate wet ingredients: mix 1.5 cups of buttermilk with a couple of eggs and a teaspoon of garlic paste.

Combine the wet and dry ingredients until just mixed.

Spread a third of the batter into the bottom of the pan.

Add half of the herb mixture on top of the batter.

Swirl the herb mixture into the batter without fully combining it.

Push cheese pieces into the batter, leaving some sticking out.

Top with the remaining batter and repeat with the remaining herbs and cheese.

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes.

Cover with foil and reduce the temperature to 375°F, baking for an additional 30 minutes or until a skewer comes out clean.
