Cheesy Quick Bread is an easy bread recipe you can make without yeast in only 30 minutes. Buttermilk and cheddar cheese make this savory bread recipe so delicious.
Stir together flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and garlic powder.
Add cold butter to dry ingredients and cut it with a pastry cutter or two knives until the mixture looks like coarse meal. (You can also use a food processor for this).
To the dry ingredients, add in buttermilk, cheese, eggs, chives, and sugar. Stir until just combined.
Place the batter into a greased or parchment lined 9x5 inch loaf pan.
Pour the 2 Tablespoons melted butter over the top of the uncooked loaf pan.
Bake in the oven for 35-45 minutes or until a tester comes out clean.
Cool bread for 15 minutes before transferring bread to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
