Step 1

The morning of the day you'd like to bake, add to a mixer bowl the active (fed the night before) sourdough starter, water, milk, oil, honey, and flours. Mix for about 3 minutes with a dough hook. Let sit for 15 minutes.

Step 2

Add the salt and mix with the hook for another 5 minutes. Cover the mixer bowl with plastic and set aside to rise until doubled, about 4 hours.

Step 3

When the dough has doubled, add the cheese and mix with the hook until distributed through the dough.

Step 4

Divide between two greased 8.5 x 4.5-inch loaf pans, smoothing the tops as needed (the pans should be filled halfway with the dough). Oil the tops and cover with plastic again to rise for 2 more hours or until the dough is at the top of the pans.

Step 5

Heat the oven to 400 degrees. When hot, bake the loaves for 35-40 minutes, turning as needed for even cooking, until browned.

Step 6

Cool for a few minutes in pans before turning out onto a cooling rack. Serve warm or toasted.
