Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a standard loaf pan with butter or cooking spray.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and garlic powder until well combined.
- Gently fold in the shredded sharp cheddar cheese with a spatula, ensuring it's evenly coated.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together buttermilk, melted unsalted butter, and egg until smooth.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and gently mix until just combined.
- Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes until golden brown and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Brush the top with melted butter immediately after baking and cool for about 10 minutes.
- Slice the loaf after cooling slightly and serve warm with soups, salads, or on its own.

Notes
Use freshly shredded cheese for the best results, avoid overmixing, and store properly to maintain texture.
