Are you a fan of those breads from the bakery, you know, the one’s with that deliciously crunchy crust and soft, fluffy inside?

No Knead Jalapeño Cheddar Artisan Bread

All the nooks and crannies are just BEGGING for some creamy salted butter.  Although my favorite thing to make with this bread… is grilled cheese!  Seriously, it’s amazing.

I have another suuuuuuper easy no-knead bread on my website, but it requires a really long rise/rest time… so you have to make it the night before you want to bake the bread.

It tastes amazing, but I wanted to tweak that recipe to see if I could make a no-knead dutch oven bread that DIDN’T require a rise overnight.

Like most breads, it does have to rise two different times, however, it’s virtually hands-off, since you just fold the dough with a rubber spatula in between the rises… you don’t even have to get your hands dirty!

Let’s break it down… it may sound complicated, but I promise you it’s not, and I took step by step photos to show you.

Freshly baked breads, like this one, taste best when they are fresh.  While your bread will still taste good 1-2 days after it’s baked, it will always best the day of.

Bread should be kept at room temperature.  Refrigerating bread actually causes it to go stale quicker (at least with homemade breads), so keep it out of there for best results.

This mimics the steaming effect of baking the dough in a dutch oven with the lid on for the first 30 minutes (which is what causes the bread to rise so much), and also produces a great crispy crust.

Insanely Amazing Jalapeño Cheese Dip Recipe

Hey there! I'm Amanda. Wife, mother, photography nerd, and bacon lover! I believe that delicious meals should be easy to make. Now that you’re here, stay a bit, browse a few recipes, and let’s get cookin’!This easy Jalapeño Cheddar Bread is a quick bread recipe with jalapeños, cheddar cheese and bell peppers all stuffed inside! It’s bold, flavorful, and just a little bit spicy.

Easy

As much as I love sweet bread recipes (like Cinnamon Bread and Apricot Pecan Bread, to name just two), savory quick breads like this jalapeño cheddar bread are really special, too! There’s nothing like a savory, warm loaf right out of the oven – especially when that loaf is full of melting cheddar cheese and the spicy kick of real jalapeño peppers. The light, tender crumb is a delight to slice and serve, whether you’re scarfing it down fresh out of the oven, or serving it up with dinner.

You’ll notice I’m talking about quick bread, here, as opposed to yeast bread. Everyone loves an old-fashioned yeast bread loaf, but they do take time. Most yeast breads require at least one round of kneading and rising, and sometimes two. Well, not this recipe! Much like your favorite banana bread or cake batter, this one comes together in a snap and rises up to fluffy perfection with just a spoonful of baking powder. It couldn’t be simpler, or tastier!

Jalapeno Cheddar Dutch Oven Bread (no Knead!)

Cheese and jalapeño all twisted together into a pretty loaf. Uses pickled jalapeños for best flavour. Makes one loaf, but you can double.

Jalapeño and cheese is always a delicious flavour combination. Here it is woven into a light and delicious yeast bread, with lots of cheddar cheese cheese and pickled jalapeños all twisted together into a pretty loaf.

Flour – You can use either bread or all purpose flour for this bread. Bread flour would be the preferred option. If you don’t have bread flour, go ahead and use all purpose flour. Keep in mind that you may need to use a bit more all purpose flour for the dough.

Yeast – My preferred yeast is always regular Instant yeast (such as SAF Brand Instant Yeast). This is not quick-rise or rapid-rise yeast, which is not recommended for this classic two-rise bread. If you don’t have regular Instant yeast, Active Dry yeast will work here, as well.

Jalape̱os РCanned or jarred pickled jalape̱os are used here, as they are both the easiest and they bring the best jalape̱o flavour, in my opinion. Look for them in with the Mexican foods at the grocery store. If you want to use fresh jalape̱os, I would suggest roasting them a bit first, to both soften and mellow the raw jalape̱o flavour.

Cheese – Cheddar cheese is the natural here. An older cheddar will bring the best cheese flavour. You can adjust the amount of cheese in the bread, to taste, but I wouldn’t suggest getting too carried away, as cheese releases a lot of oil as it bakes and can make for a greasy bread if you use too much.

No Knead Jalapeno Cheddar Bread

Bread flour is recommended for best texture and lightness. If you only have all purpose flour on hand, you can use it, but your bread may be a bit less light. If using all purpose flour, you may find you have to use a bit more flour to get to that moist, smooth dough stage.
