I love it when the garden starts producing fresh vegetables and herbs! Yesterday our produce basket from the Pleasant View Greenhouse included fresh dill, so I searched for a quick bread recipe that had dill in it. This recipe call for dried dill, but I used 1/4 cup loosely packed fresh dill.
This is a quick bread to make and you will love the flavors of the dill, combined with garlic, onion and cheese. The recipe called for sharp cheddar cheese, which would have added more color and made it a bit more cheesy. But to avoid a trip to the grocery store, I used the Gouda I had on hand. You put half of the cheese in the dough, and the other half is sprinkled on the top. Then once I took it out of the oven, I sprinkled the loaf with a little bit of cheese and chopped dill.
This bread is delicious warm from the oven, but my favorite way to eat most quick breads is to toast them and spread with a bit of butter.
YUM! A treat with any meal! Enjoy the summer!
