Spicy Cheese Loaf for Breadmaker

Your bread machine is about to earn its counter space.

This savory loaf packs sharp cheddar, dry mustard, Worcestershire sauce, and cracked black pepper into a soft, golden bread that smells incredible while it bakes and tastes even better sliced warm.

It’s the kind of bread that elevates a simple grilled cheese into restaurant territory and makes plain butter on toast feel like a treat.

Just load the pan, press start, and let the machine do the work.

Pro Tips

• Shred the cheddar yourself rather than using pre-shredded. Fresh-grated cheese melts more evenly into the dough without the anti-caking coatings.
• Use the rapid bake cycle if your machine has one. This loaf works well on either setting.
• Check your machine’s loading order. Some models want liquids first, others want dry ingredients first. Follow your manual’s guidance for the best rise.
