Preheat the oven to 350°F. Line a 9x5-inch loaf pan with parchment paper. Spray the parchment paper with cooking spray.
NOTE: Adding the parchment paper just helps it lift out easier at the end but it can be skipped if you prefer. Just make sure to spray the loaf pan really well
To a bowl, you add the 1 ¾ cups all-purpose flour, 1 Tablespoon white granulated sugar, 1 Tablespoon baking powder, and ½ teaspoon salt. Mix until fully combined. Next, add the 3 cups freshly shredded cheddar cheese. Mix until the cheese is coated in the flour.
To the bowl, add 1 cup whole milk, ¼ cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, melted and 1 egg, whisked. Mix until just combined. Do not overmix.
Transfer the batter to the loaf pan.
Bake on the middle rack for about 35 to 40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Prepare the garlic butter topping. Add the melted ¼ cup unsalted butter, melted, ¼ teaspoon dried parsley, ¼ teaspoon garlic powder, ⅛ teaspoon onion powder, and ¼ teaspoon salt to a bowl. Taste the butter mixture to see if you want to add more garlic powder and salt.
Remove the bread from the oven and place it on a wire rack in the pan for 5 minutes.
Use a pastry brush to coat the top of the bread with the garlic butter.
Remove the bread from the pan, slice and enjoy.
