Cheese And Yogurt Quick Bread Food

SIMPLE YOGURT BREAD

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a loaf pan with cooking spray.
• Combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt in a small bowl.
• Mix yogurt, sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract together in a large bowl. Stir in flour mixture a little at a time, mixing well between each addition to avoid lumps. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean, about 45 minutes.

CARROT CAKE LOAF (QUICK BREAD)

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (177°C). Grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan. See notes for muffins or mini loaves.
• Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg together in a large bowl until combined. Set aside. In a medium bowl, whisk the oil, eggs, brown sugar, applesauce, vanilla, and carrots together until combined. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently whisk until *just* combined. Fold in the nuts/add-in. Batter will be semi-thick.
• Spread the batter into prepared loaf pan. Bake for 55 - 65 minutes. (I like to loosely cover the bread with aluminum foil halfway through to prevent heavy browning on top.) Baking times vary so keep an eye on yours. The bread is done when a toothpick inserted in the center comes out *mostly* clean with zero raw batter. Remove the bread from the oven.
• Cool completely in the pan set on a wire rack before removing and frosting.
• Using a handheld or stand mixer fitted with a paddle or whisk attachment, beat the cream cheese in a medium bowl on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy. Beat in the butter until combined. Add the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, cinnamon, and a pinch of salt (I usually add a little less than 1/8 teaspoon), then beat on low speed until smooth and creamy. Taste. Add more cinnamon and/or salt if desired. Frost cooled bread, slice, and serve.
• Cover and store leftover bread at room temperature for up to 3-4 days or in the refrigerator for up to about 10 days. Storing with frosting: Cover and store leftover bread in the refrigerator for up to about 1 week.

CHEESY PULL-APART BREAD FROM SCRATCH

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees C (190 degrees C).
• Mix flour, yogurt, Italian seasoning, garlic, and salt together in a large bowl until it forms a ball. Transfer to a lightly floured work surface and knead until smooth, adding more flour as necessary to keep dough from sticking, 2 to 3 minutes. Shape mixture into 1-inch balls.
• Layer dough balls and cheese in a small (5-inch) nonstick springform pan.
• Bake in the preheated oven until bread has risen and is baked through, 15 to 20 minutes.

HERB & CHEESE QUICK BREAD

Steps:

• Combine dry ingredients.
• Cut in margarine or butter.
• Combine cheese, egg, yogurt and milk, and add to other ingredients.
• Dump into a round or square 9-inch pan, sprinkle with poppy seeds.
• Bake at 350°F for 30-45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.

YOGURT CHEESE BREAD

Steps:

• Beat yogurt and salt together in large bowl until smooth. Gradually add flour until you have a stiff dough. Tip onto a lightly floured bench and gradually knead dough, incorporating any remaining flour until the dough is soft and only slightly sticky. Transfer to a clean bowl and stand covered 30 minutes.
• When ready to cook, divide dough into 8 equal portions. Roll out thinly. Pile a small handful of cheese in the centre of the rolled out dough. Brush a little water around edges before folding over cheeses to seal. Pat cheese parcel with palm of hand until pressed together and about 5mm thick.
• Heat a large non-stick frying pan over very high heat. When hot, cook cheese parcels one at a time until browned and crisp on base. Flip over and continue to cook on other side until browned. Transfer to a large chopping board and cut in half to serve. Serve with salsa as a light snack.
• Tomato Salsa: Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl, stir well. Serve with cheese bread.
