Learn how to make a quick bread that pairs perfectly with chili.
| |  | | | | Before we dive into yeast breads next week, quick breads are a great place to start, especially if you're a true beginner bread baker. Quick breads use baking powder or baking soda for leavening rather than yeast. This means no waiting for yeast to make bubbles so the bread will rise, so you'll get to eat your finished product much sooner. Serve this jalapeño cheddar quick bread with chili, as sandwich bread for grilled cheese, or toasted with butter for a quick and easy breakfast. Feel free to add as much (or as little) jalapeño depending on your spice tolerance. | | | | | | | | | | • | 2 cups / 9 ounces all-purpose flour | | • | 4 teaspoons baking powder | | • | 1 tablespoon sugar | | • | 1 teaspoon garlic powder | | • | 1/2 teaspoon salt | | • | 6 ounces shredded sharp cheddar cheese | | • | 1 jalapeño pepper, minced | | • | 1 large egg | | • | 1 cup milk | | • | 3 tablespoons melted butter | | | | | | | | | | | How to Make Jalapeño Cheddar Quick Bread | | |  | | | | | 1.
