Cheddar Jalapeno Buttermilk Bread Recipe

buttermilk

🥗Healthier: Greek yogurt

💰Cheaper: milk + vinegar

Greek yogurt reduces calories while maintaining creaminess

cheddar cheese

🥗Healthier: reduced-fat cheddar

💰Cheaper: processed cheese

Reduced-fat cheddar lowers calories without sacrificing flavor

jalapenos

🥗Healthier: banana peppers

💰Cheaper: green bell peppers

Banana peppers offer a milder flavor, while green bell peppers are more affordable.

Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).

Grease a loaf pan and set aside.

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, sugar, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder.

In another bowl, mix the buttermilk, egg, and melted butter until combined.

Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.

Fold in the cheddar cheese and jalapenos gently until evenly distributed.

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 45-55 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.

Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.

Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
