Bread Machine Cheddar Bread

Your bread machine does all the heavy lifting for this cheesy, savory loaf that makes the entire house smell like a bakery.

Sharp cheddar gets kneaded right into the dough, creating pockets of melted cheese throughout the tender crumb.

Slice it thick for sandwiches, toast it for breakfast, or serve it alongside soup for a comforting meal that feels far fancier than the minimal effort required.

Kitchen Tips

• Add ingredients in order: Liquids first, then dry ingredients, with yeast on top keeps the yeast from activating too early.
• Use freshly grated cheddar: Pre-shredded cheese has anti-caking agents that prevent proper melting. Grate a block yourself for best results.
• Let it cool completely before slicing: Warm bread tears and gums up your knife. Patience gives you clean, perfect slices.
