Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C). Grease your loaf pan with butter or line it with parchment paper.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder.
  3. Fold in the shredded cheddar cheese, ensuring it's evenly coated with flour.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, melted butter, and honey until fully combined.
  5. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, gently stirring until just combined; do not overmix.
  6. Transfer the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
  7. Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes, until golden brown.
  8. Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
