Cheddar Cheese Bread A delightful hint of cheddar cheese permeates this golden loaf.
    3 cups  King Arthur Unbleached Special Bread Flour
    1 teaspoon  instant yeast
    1/2 teaspoon  tomato powder
    1 teaspoon  pizza dough flavor
    1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon  sugar
    1 1/2 teaspoons  salt
    1 1/2 tablespoons  butter, room temperature
      margarine, alternative
    1/3 to 1/2 cup  water
    2/3 cup  milk
    1 heaping cup (4 1/2 ounces)  shredded sharp cheddar cheese

In a large bowl, mix together all of the dry ingredients. Add the butter or margarine, water, and milk, and stir to form a shaggy mass. Let the mixture sit for 15 minutes, then knead it, by hand or machine, until you've formed a smooth, elastic dough. Knead in the cheese, place the dough in a greased bowl, cover it, and let it rise for 1 hour; it should be puffy, though not doubled in size. Turn the dough out onto a lightly greased or floured work surface, and shape it into a loaf. Place it in an 8 1/2 x 4 1/2-inch loaf pan, let it rise for about 1 hour, and bake the bread in a preheated 375°F oven for 25 minutes, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 190°F. Note: If the bread appears to be browning too quickly, tent it lightly with aluminum foil after the first 15 minutes of baking. Yield: 1 loaf.

My family loves this bread! I've made it twice, and both times it disappeared within one day. I had to make some changes based on the ingredients I had on hand. First, I only had all-purpose flour. I also don't have tomato powder, whatever that is, so left it out. I used an herb mix called "pizza seasoning." For the yeast, I had active dry and not instant. I just made sure to warm the milk and water before adding it to the flour mixture. I followed the mixing, kneading, and rising directions but did bake the bread with a pan of hot water in the oven. The result is a beautiful, soft, delicious bread that is great plain or toasted. I am planning on make more loaves to add to Christmas gift baskets!

This is the perfect cheese bread recipe. Lots of cheese flavor and great texture. Instead of the spices listed, I used a half teaspoon each of dry mustard powder and of cayenne pepper. Toasting only enhances the cheese flavor of the bread, and it's great with soup!

I have not made this recipe yet but was inquiring about the tomato powder and the pizza dough flavor. I cannot locate these ingredients in the grocery stores. Is there alternative. Can I also replace the unbleached flour with whole wheat flour and how can I adjuste the measurement? I am a new fan of King Arthur and love your recipes? I bake some holidays cookies and the hame and cheeese bread came out just perfect.
Please send us an email to bakers@kingarthurflour.com and we will be happy to advise on making changes to this recipe. MJR @ KAF
