Preheat the oven: Preheat the oven to 200°C (180°C for a fan oven). Line a small loaf pan (approximately 20×10 cm) with parchment paper.
Mix dry ingredients: In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder, and garlic powder (if using).
Add the cheese: Add most of the grated cheese (about 150 g) to the dry ingredients and mix.
Add the yogurt: Pour the plain yogurt into the flour and cheese mixture.
Mix the dough: Using a wooden spoon or spatula, mix the ingredients until a sticky dough forms. Don’t overmix!
Pour into pan: Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan and smooth top evenly.
Topping: Drizzle the top of the dough with olive oil and sprinkle with the remaining grated cheese (approx. 50 g). If using, sprinkle with chopped fresh herbs.
Baking: Bake the bread in the preheated oven for approx. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into it comes out clean.
Cooling and serving: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for a few minutes. Then carefully remove it from the mold and place it on a wire rack to cool completely (although it’s also delicious warm!). Serve sliced.
Why is it so special?
Quick: no yeast required and can be assembled in seconds.
Simple: It is made with few ingredients that you normally find at home.
Super delicious: the yogurt gives the bread a soft, loose texture, and the abundant cheese gives it an intense, salty flavor. And garlic powder (if using) adds an extra dimension of flavor.
This bread is fantastic on its own, but you can also serve it with soups, as a sandwich or on toast. I guarantee it will become your favorite soon! Enjoy your meal! 😊
