No-knead Cheddar Cheese Bread Recipe

How to make it

---

• Prep does not include rising times
• In a large bowl place the yeast, salt and 2 cups of warm water.
• Stir until dissolved.
• Add flour and cheese and mix well either by hand or mixer. It will be a thick, gooey batter-like dough.
• Cover bowl with plastic wrap and allow dough to rise for 2 hours (or up to 5 hours).
• After rising, stir down dough and pour into a bread pan lined with
• parchment paper.
• Place covered glass loaf pans (one inverted on top of the other) in an oven and set the oven temperature to 450 degrees.
• When the oven temperature reaches 450 degrees, set timer for 30 minutes.
• At the end of that time, remove the top pan (do not remove it from the oven), lift the dough by the parchment paper edges and place in the pre-heated pan.
• Again invert the glass pan and place it on top of the dough.
• Bake for 30 minutes at 450.
• Ovens vary, so if you have a meat probe thermometer, stick it in the bread at the end of 30 minutes once the cover is removed.
• The bread is done when it reaches 170 degrees.
• Note: You can eliminate the cheese and just make it a plain bread.
• It's delicious either way!
