Cheese, Garlic and Herb Quick Bread (no yeast)
Recipe video above. A bread made without yeast with swirls of herb and pockets of cheese throughout with addictive garlic flavour. Slices well and especially great toasted!Enjoy for morning tea, take to picnics, serve on the side of meals, dunk into soups and slow cooked stews! Serve warm for the best eating experience, preferably with lashings of butter.PS You can totally use homemade or store-bought pesto instead of the herb & garlic swirl. Use 1/3 to 1/2 cup. Bear in mind the flavour will only be as good as the pesto you use :)

📝 Preparation Steps
1
Preheat oven to 180°C/350°F (both fan and standard ovens).
2
Loaf tin - Grease a 21 x 11 x 7 cm loaf pan (8.3 x 4.5 x 2.75") lightly with butter or oil spray then line with baking paper (parchment paper). (Note 3)
3
Herb and garlic swirl - Mix the ingredients in a small bowl, it should be a thick dollop-able mixture.
4
Dry ingredients - Whisk the Dry Ingredients in a bowl.
5
Wet ingredients - Whisk the wet ingredients in a separate bowl.
6
Combine - Make a well in the centre of the Dry Ingredients. Pour the Wet Ingredients in and mix until just combined.
7
Swirls and cheese Layer 1 - Pour 1/3 of the batter into the bread tin. Dollop 1/3 of the herbs across the top then use a knife to "swirl" it into the batter up and down, and also turning the batter over (refer photo below). Use 1/3 of the cheese slices and push them randomly into the batter. Push some all the way in and leave some poking out of the batter.
8
Layers 2 and 3 - Repeat twice more. Don't worry about herb mixture exposed and cheese slices sticking out the surface, looks amazing when baked!
9
Bake for ⏱️ 30 minutes, or until the top is golden. Remove from oven and cover with foil, then bake for a further ⏱️ 20 minutes (total baking time ⏱️ 50 minutes). Check to make sure the centre is cooked by inserting a skewer - it should come out clean.
10
Cool in the loaf tin for ⏱️ 5 minutes then turn the bread out onto a cooling rack. Allow to cool for at least another ⏱️ 10 minutes before cutting thick slices. Butter is optional but always welcome!
