Step 1

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Using baking spray, grease and line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment.

Step 2

In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt and garlic powder. Add in the cheese, beer and half of the melted butter. Mix well until all is just combined. Do not over mix as you can end up with a dense bread.

Step 3

Spoon batter into the prepared pan. Pour the remaining melted butter over the bread. Brush it around evenly. Sprinkle 1-2 tablespoons shredded cheese.

Step 4

Bake bread for 40-50 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Transfer bread to a cooling rack and let cool for at least 10 minutes before removing from pan.

Step 5

Slice and serve warm.
