Instructions
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures even baking and a beautiful crust.
Step 2: Dry Ingredients
In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt, oregano, thyme, garlic powder, and onion powder. Mix well.
Step 3: Add the Cheese
Stir in the Parmesan and cheddar cheese.
Step 4: Wet Ingredients
In a separate bowl, whisk together milk, olive oil, and eggs.
Step 5: Combine
Gently pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined – don’t overmix!
Step 6: Into the Loaf Pan
Grease a loaf pan and pour in the batter, spreading evenly.
Step 7: Bake
Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 8: Cool & Enjoy!
Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
