Ingredients You’ll Need
Makes 1 small loaf (6–8 slices)
- 2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese (or a mix of mozzarella and cheddar for extra flavor)
- 1 cup plain Greek yogurt (unsweetened, full-fat for best results)
- 4 large eggs , divided
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- Optional Add-Ins :
- 1/2 tsp garlic powder or Italian seasoning for savory flair
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese for extra richness
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Preheat the Oven
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) . Line a small loaf pan (about 6x3 inches) with parchment paper or grease it lightly with butter or oil.
Step 2: Melt the Cheese
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the shredded mozzarella cheese in the microwave for 30–60 seconds , stirring halfway through, until fully melted and smooth.
Step 3: Mix the Dough
- To the melted cheese, add the Greek yogurt and 3 of the eggs. Stir until the mixture forms a sticky dough.
- Sprinkle the baking powder (and optional seasonings) over the dough and mix until well combined.
Step 4: Shape the Dough
- Transfer the dough to the prepared loaf pan and press it down evenly with a spatula or your hands to form a smooth surface.
Step 5: Add the Egg Wash
- Beat the remaining egg and brush it lightly over the top of the dough. This will give the bread a golden, shiny crust after baking.
Step 6: Bake
- Bake for 25–30 minutes , or until the bread is golden brown on top and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 5–10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Step 7: Slice and Serve
- Slice the bread into thin pieces and enjoy as-is or toasted with your favorite toppings like butter, avocado, or cream cheese.
