"I Made Jalapeño Cheddar Bread for the First Time- Here's How It Went"
Do you ever get a hankering for homemade bread but get discouraged by how hard it is to make yourself? Yeah, you and me both. Please go watch this TikTok and prepare to question every thought you have ever thought because making bread is actually insanely easy! I saw this and decided that I was finally ready- so I present to you my first attempt at Jalapeño Cheddar Bread:
Isn’t she absolutely gorgeous?
I threw everything together as soon as I got home from work so it could rise while I made dinner and got some stuff done around the house, it was crazy easy to get started.
This guy’s TikTok was so easy to follow and I got adventurous and decided to add fresh jalapenos and cheddar (I even splurged for some nicer cheddar- we’re talking Tillamook, baby!)
The only thing I changed was swapping out regular salt for garlic salt and chopping those up and folding them in when I formed my dough and preheated my oven. My fiancé bought me a bread oven monthssss ago and I was practically giddy to get to use it for the first time and got even giddier when the bread actually turned out so damn good!
Things to try for next time:
-I think I will incorporate some actual garlic (Jarlic if you will) to give it more flavor.
-I need to work the dough a bit more to get the add-ins mixed in better. On the first slice I cut and split with Danny, I did not get a single jalapeño bit and he got about 6...
-I saw another video where someone incorporated melted butter in so I may try that as well.
Did we already plow through over a quarter of the bread and eat some with our very classy homemade breakfast sandwiches on paper plates?
That’s a secret I’ll never tell… you know you love me.
