Tips:
- Use high-quality sharp cheddar cheese for a more flavorful bread.
- Shred the cheese yourself instead of using pre-shredded cheese for better melting.
- Use a combination of all-purpose flour and bread flour for a lighter, more airy bread.
- Be careful not to overmix the dough, as this will result in a tough bread.
- Let the dough rise in a warm place for at least 1 hour, or until it has doubled in size.
- Bake the bread in a preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the center is cooked through.
- Let the bread cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving.
