A quick bread
>> Saturday, 29 May 2010
We hear about quick-breads all the time but what exactly is a quick bread? Answer: a bread that can be made quickly. Duh! Hold on, not so fast! Yes it can be made quickly but did you know that quick-breads have three methods of mixing? Did you know that the dough/batter consistency varies resulting in different textures? Read this week's column to find out more.
Waking up hungry led to me making this Cheese & Herb Quick Bread. The recipe can be found at the bottom of the column. Enjoy at anytime!

Beautiful and delicous looking bread.
I never thought of quick breads as having 3 different mixing methods. So interesting. I wish I could wake up tomorrow and say "Cyn, how's about one of your great quick breads?" Oh, but I have the recipe, so now I can make it myself!
That is one beautiful bread! So moist and delicious looking!
Cheers,

Hello, Cynthia! Long time no see -- hope you are well! The quick bread looks divine. It might be unconventional but I think I could have this with some of that fish curry from the previous post :)
(Pancakes and egg/salmon combo is also right up my alley... and I am not a breakfast person!?!)
Cynthia, what a nice loaf of bread...and a quick one? Wondeful!
I only learnt after moving to US what is quick bread! The savory cheese bread is a piece of heaven!
This bread looks amazing! Wish I could have a bite!
Awesome click. Such an beautiful and perfect looking bread.
I am a great fan of your recipes and food photographs, it will be our pleasure if you could participate in our Sizzling Summer Contest.
YOur herbed bread is making me hungry, Cynthia. Didn't know there was so much variety in batter could make a difference to the bread.
A cheese an herb savoury quick bread sounds really good!
I love having savoury breakfast as I can never eat sweet stuff first thing in the morning. This is such a great idea! ;)
What a sensational bread! I am sure that I will love this one!
Can't resist this piece of bread, very tempting.
Mmmmm...bread....my weakness. *sigh*
Any bread with lashings of cheese in it is instantly appealing to me, and with those tasty green onions to zest things up... how yum is that?! Thanks for the great recipe, and the low down on quick breads.
That was a very informative post. Thanks Cynthia. That bred looks so moist and delicious. I have bookmarked this recipe and will try soon.
I am looking for a recipe to feed 400 women at a brunch. Could I bake this recipe in muffin tins to make serving the crowd easier? And, could I bake ahead and freeze?
Thanks
