Number Of Ingredients 8

3 cups all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cheddar cheese. A sharp cheddar will give the bread a bolder flavor.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Overbaking will make the bread dry.

Conclusion:

The bread is moist and flavorful, with a crispy crust and a perfect balance of bacon and cheddar cheese. It is sure to be a hit with everyone who tries it.
