Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 cup unsalted butter cold and cubed
3/4 cup milk
1 1/2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
Instructions
1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
2. Add cold, cubed butter to the dry ingredients. Use a pastry cutter or your fingers to work the butter into the flour until the mixture resembles coarse crumbs.
3. Pour in the milk gradually, stirring with a fork until a soft dough forms. Be careful not to overmix.
4. Gently fold shredded cheese into the dough, making sure it’s evenly distributed.
5. Turn the dough onto a floured surface and knead just until it comes together. Pat into a rectangle, cut into strips, then stack and arrange them upright in a greased loaf pan.
6. Bake at 375°F (190°C) for 35–40 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean. Let cool slightly before serving.
Notes
Use cold butter to ensure flaky layers.
Don’t overmix the dough to keep it tender.
Try blending cheeses for a unique flavor.
