Preheat the oven to 350°F, and grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan.
In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder. Use a spoon to stir in the shredded cheese. Next, slowly pour in the beer and melted butter. Stir until the ingredients are just combined. The mixture will be lumpy and sticky in texture.
Spoon the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Bake for 40 to 50 minutes or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean. The internal temperature should read 200-205°F on an instant read thermometer.
Remove the bread from the oven, and allow it to sit in the pan for 5 to 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack. Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing.
See post for storage options.
Notes
*The calories listed are an approximation based on the ingredients in the recipe card and a serving size of 1 slice (a tenth of the bread). Actual calories will vary.*For more information, tips, and answers to frequently asked questions, please refer to the post.*Use a good quality cheese that’s shredded off the block. Pre-shredded cheese contains an anti-caking agent that sometimes keeps the cheese from melting, and it can make dishes thicker than intended.*This bread doesn’t rise tall like yeast bread, so don’t worry if it’s a bit flatter than your favorite homemade sandwich bread.
