Ingredients
- 2 cups All-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon Baking powder
- 1 tablespoon Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoons Salt
- 2 tablespoons Ranch seasoning mix
- 1 cup Buttermilk
- 0.25 cups Unsalted butter, melted
- 2 pieces Large eggs
- 1.5 cups Sharp cheddar cheese, shredded
- 2 tablespoons Chopped fresh chives (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5-inch loaf pan, or line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
Step 2
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and ranch seasoning mix until well combined.
Step 3
In a medium bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted butter, and eggs until smooth and creamy.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix gently with a spatula until just combined. Avoid overmixing, as this can make the bread tough.
Step 5
Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese and chopped chives (if using) until evenly distributed throughout the batter.
Step 6
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
Step 7
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
Step 8
Remove the bread from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Then, transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 9
Slice and serve warm or at room temperature. This bread pairs wonderfully with soups, salads, or as a standalone snack!
