******************

When one loaf goes, another one is created. And ohhh baby, is this a good one.

IMG_7694

We’re HUGE carb people over here. Pairing bread with dinner is basically my favorite thing EVER.

I skimmed through my recipes a bit and I thought I might want to make my Hearty Oat Loaf, but then I decided to put together two of our favorite things into this bread – cheese and Italian anything.

The bread is killerrrrr. Seriously.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 3/4 cup reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon Italian seasoning
  • 1/2 teaspoon basil
  • 1/2 teaspoon oregano
  • 3 tablespoons cold butter
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup plain Greek yogurt
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1/4 cup reduced-fat mozzarella cheese
  • Optional: spray butter, an extra tbsp butter, or garlic spray

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch round baking pan with cooking spray; set aside.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the first 10 ingredients and mix well. Cut in cold butter with a pastry blender (or two knives/forks) until mixture is made up of fine crumbs.
  3. In a small bowl, whisk together egg, Greek yogurt, and milk. Stir into dry ingredients until just moistened – do not over mix! (If your dough is still a little dry, add an extra splash of milk).
  4. Spoon into prepared baking pan, sprinkle with remaining 1/4 cup cheese and extra butter, if desired. Bake for 20-25 minutes or until light golden brown. Cool slightly before serving. Enjoy!

While Jay had some leftover soup with it, I had a portion of some Crock Pot Chicken Taco Chili.

IMG_7699

Because, you know…cheesy Italian bread is the perfect match for Mexican-flavored chili, right?

IMG_7698

The chili was good, but I got full super quick and couldn’t even finish it all. So not like me. Must have been from all the bread. Winking smile

IMG_7701

Either way, you have GOT to try this bread. Promise, mmmkay??

    This is tooooo funny. I just posted that I had bought my first jar of Jason's Almond Butter and I read your post and you put it on your cereal. Stupid question - what do you do with the oil on top? Stir it in or pour it off??? I'm an almond butter newbie. :)

    certainly like your web-site however, you need to check the punctuational on numerous of one\'s discussions. A number of them usually are rife with transliteration troubles and that i realize its really bothersome frankly nonetheless I\'ll certainly can come once more yet again.

I had to laugh though - I read where you got baby fever after watching the movie (the post was from a year ago), then realized you now have a baby...I guess you got right to it, lol! Congrats on your baby, and thanks for the great recipes :-)

    Hi, i was looking for a quick italian bread to serve with sauce. Great recipe. Thank you. Added fresh garlic. Didn't add the extra cheese on top. Grated some cold butter on top before popping into the oven. Was a hit. Thank you again. Came together beautifully. Have a nourishing new year.
