Ingredients
Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray. Set aside.
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, chopped peanuts, shredded cheddar cheese, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and cayenne pepper. Mix well to ensure all ingredients are evenly distributed.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk together the whole milk, melted butter, and eggs until well combined.
-
Slowly pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps in the batter are okay.
-
Transfer the batter to the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly with a spatula.
-
Bake the Peanut Cheese Loaf in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the top is golden brown.
-
Once baked, remove the loaf from the oven and allow it to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then, carefully transfer the loaf to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
-
Slice the Peanut Cheese Loaf into thick pieces and serve warm.
