A delicious and easy-to-make Garlic Parmesan Herb Bread that is perfect for any meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1 cup milk
- 1 tablespoon fresh parsley, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried parsley)
- 1 tablespoon fresh basil, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried basil)
- 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, black pepper, and Parmesan cheese. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter and milk until combined.
- Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chopped parsley, basil, and red pepper flakes if using.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a cheesy twist, add 1/2 cup of shredded mozzarella cheese to the batter before baking.
- For a more intense garlic flavor, increase the garlic powder to 2 teaspoons or add 2 minced garlic cloves to the wet ingredients.
