Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan thoroughly with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until evenly combined.
- Fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese into the dry mixture until evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and egg until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the bowl of dry ingredients and stir gently until just mixed.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top evenly.
- Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.
- Remove from the oven and brush the top with melted butter.
- Allow to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.

Notes
Use freshly shredded cheese for optimal flavor. Avoid overmixing for a tender texture. Explore adding herbs for customization.
