What You’ll Need to Make This Recipe

This recipe uses everyday ingredients that come together quickly. Flour forms the base, while baking powder helps the bread rise slightly and stay soft.

Milk and egg create a smooth batter, giving the bread structure and tenderness. Cheese is the highlight here, adding richness and that irresistible melted texture.

A bit of butter or oil brings everything together and helps the bread cook to a beautiful golden color in the pan.

How to Make Cheesy Bread in 10 Minutes Step by Step

Step 1: Mix Dry Ingredients

In a bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and grated cheese. Stir well so everything is evenly distributed.

Step 2: Add Wet Ingredients

Add the egg, milk, and melted butter or oil. Mix until you have a smooth, slightly thick batter.

Step 3: Shape the Dough

You can divide the mixture into small portions and shape them into discs, or spread all the dough into one thicker round.

Step 4: Cook in the Pan

Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and lightly grease it with butter. Place the dough in the pan and cook for 5–7 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.

Step 5: Serve Warm

Serve immediately while the cheese is still warm and melty.
