Our summer vacation is officially two weeks old. The exact amount of time I claimed it took to adjust to this change. I was so wrong!
We have our summer schedule in place, chores being taken care of and a fun list of boredom busters that we are completing. However, at the end of the day, I am struggling because I feel like I’ve completed very little. Not a single thing planted in my garden. Not a single weed pulled from my flower beds. Not a single project from my summer home improvement list begun.
Parmesan Cheddar Quick Bread
- Yield: 1 loaf 1x
Ingredients
- 1 3/4 C flour
- 1/4 C sugar
- 2 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3/4 tsp salt
- 1/2 C freshly grated parmesan cheese
- 1 C freshly grated cheddar cheese
- 1 C milk
- 1 egg
- 1/3 C oil
Instructions
1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees and lightly spray a loaf pan with nonstick spray. In a medium bowl, mix together all the dry ingredients. Add the two cheeses and mix so each piece is coated in the flour mixture. It keeps the cheese from settling to the bottom of the loaf.
2. In a small bowl, beat together the wet ingredients and add to the dry. Mix just until combined and do not over mix! Pour into the loaf pan and bake for 35-40 minutes, until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Remove from the pan and cool on wire rack.

It’s my fault. I think I’m stealing all the time–because I SWEAR the clock has now said 8:50 the last three times I looked at it. 🙂 And this bread looks awesome.

By “freshly grated” do you mean from a newly opened package of cheese and not from the package that has been sitting in the fridge for three weeks? I don’t think I even own a cheese grater.
Carole says
Freshly grated is definitely preferred Samantha but not required. The stuff you buy at the store that is grated, both for the cheddar and the parmesan, has a coating sprayed on it to keep it from clumping. My experience has taught me three things: it doesn’t melt as well, has a different taste to it and the results are more dry that if I grate it myself.
Mrs. DDD says
I bought some parmesan. Was surprised at the price! I’m making it for tomorrow. I will let you know how it goes!
Mrs. DDD says
Complete success! Everybody loved it!
