Provided by Julie (Bunsen Burner Bakery)

Categories     Quick Breads

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 cups (360 grams) all-purpose flour
1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon salt
1 large egg
1/3 cup (66 grams) vegetable oil
1/3 cup (76 grams) milk
1 cup (113 grams) grated cheddar
3 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 pound (454 grams) fresh tomatoes
large handful of fresh basil and oregano

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 °F. Grease an 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pan.
  • In a large mixing bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the egg, oil, and milk, followed by the grated cheese. The batter will be very thick.
  • Combine the chopped garlic, tomatoes, basil, and oregano in a food processor. Using a series of 10-15 one-second pulses, chop the tomatoes and garlic until no large pieces remain, but mixture is not completely smooth.
  • Fold the tomato and garlic mixture into the batter. Resulting batter will still be thick, but should be fully moist. If dry patches of flour remain, stir in an additional 2-3 tablespoons of milk. If batter is quite wet, stir in an additional 2-3 tablespoons of flour.
  • Pour (scoop) the batter into the prepared loaf pan. Bake 45-50 minutes, until a tester inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
  • Cool in pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a wire rack to continue cooling. Enjoy while still warm.

Tips:

  • Choose ripe tomatoes: The riper the tomatoes, the sweeter and more flavorful your bread will be.
  • Use fresh herbs: Fresh herbs like basil, oregano, and thyme add a delicious flavor to the bread.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the bread tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Bake the bread in a preheated oven: This will help the bread rise evenly and prevent it from sinking.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing: This will help the bread hold its shape and prevent it from crumbling.

Conclusion:

Tomato bread is a delicious and versatile bread that can be enjoyed for breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It's easy to make and can be customized to your liking. Whether you like it plain, with butter, or with your favorite toppings, tomato bread is sure to be a hit.
