Cheese Bread
I have a delightful recipe for you today–Cheese Bread. It’s a quick and easy bread recipe. It’s a great side for soups, salads, or main dishes of any kind, including pasta. This tasty bread has only 7 ingredients. Since it starts with Bisquick it’s incredibly easy. Add melted butter, milk, an egg, cheese, parsley and onions and that’s it! I usually make this recipe in a round 9″ round baking dish. But I’ve also doubled the recipe for a 9×13″ baking dish. It comes out very nicely either way. We served it as both a lunch and a dinner bread.

I found this recipe in a local magazine as it was reprinted from an area church cookbook. I loved the ease of this recipe. If you want to be adventurous you can add additional seasonings or spices to amp up the flavors. That’s what I did when I made an Herbed Cheese Bread. Although for a bread lover like myself, I really enjoyed it pretty close to the way it was written. I used fresh parsley since I had it on hand. I’m sure other fresh herbs like dill weed, thyme, rosemary, marjoram and even sage would work in this recipe.
I was making a meal for someone in August and included Cheese Bread as a side. I nibbled on the crumbs and enjoyed it so much I made the bread again a couple of days later for for a pool party we were having right before Labor Day. That time I got to enjoy several pieces. Yum. This recipe is so quick to prepare. I suppose that’s why I like it so much. Whether I made a single batch or a double batch, this recipe was oven ready in 10 minutes!
If you want a quick and easy bread recipe, Cheese Bread is the one to try. You can make it up for lunch or dinner. You will probably have all the ingredients on hand. It not only tastes great, but it’s also economical for those trying to stay within a small budget. For those of you who are bread lovers, like me, you will find yourself going back for another slice, or two. 🙂

I am thrilled to find this cheese bread recipe! I had this years ago, but it got left behind and I’ve been searching for it ever since. I even contacted Bisquick/Betty Crocker people and they’d never heard of it. I LOVE this bread. THANK YOU SO MUCH for posting this. I cannot wait to make this and sink my teeth into! YUMMM!

Could this be doubled a baked in a 9 x 13 pan?
Teresa

Yes, you probably can but you will definitely have to adjust the time longer. Hope it turns out well, Jan.

I made this recipe as written in a 7 x 11-inch baking dish, so doubled might be too much for a 9 x 13.

It was annoying not to be able to easily get to the recipe. Why all the verbiage and demo before the recipe

Hi Pat, sorry you don’t like all the intro before the recipe. I patterned my blog 5 1/2 years ago after the Pioneer Woman’s blog so it has a step-by-step how to make it section for all those who are not familiar with cooking. I’ve kept that format because it works well for most blog followers. Enjoy the recipe. Have a great week.

Hi, P.J. So glad you like seeing the pictures. While I design those for novice cooks, even those who’ve cooked for awhile like to see the consistency of the dough/batter in many recipes. Thanks for stopping by and letting me know.
