Time 55m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 1/2 c flour
1 1/4 tsp salt
1 tsp baking soda
2 Tbsp butter, softened, for dough mixture
1 Tbsp butter, softened, for top of loaf, more if needed
4 oz sharp cheddar cheese, coarsely grated
1 3/4 c buttermilk
1/2 lb bacon, thick sliced

Steps:

  • 1. Pre-heat oven to 400 degrees. Grease two 5 x 9 loaf pans.
  • 2. In a large frying pan, cook bacon until crisp. Drain excess grease on paper towels. Cut strips up into bite size pieces.
  • 3. In a large mixing bowel, sift salt, baking soda and flour together.
  • 4. With your fingers, combine 2 tbsp. of butter until thoroughly combined. It should look like sand. Stir in cheese and bacon until well mixed. Add buttermilk until dough just comes together.
  • 5. Divid dough evenly between both loaf pans. Smooth tops of dough. With a knife, cut a thin slice down the center of each loaf. Thinly slice remaining butter and put in the slices, using more if needed.
  • 6. Bake until tops are golden brown and a tester comes out clean, approximately 25 - 30 minutes. Allow to cool for 30 minutes before slicing. Enjoy! :o)

The cheddar and bacon flavors are perfectly balanced in this bread. It's cheesy, savory, and just a little bit sweet.
