Easy No-Knead Buttery Parmesan and Sour Cream Bread
Serves 15 mins prep24 mins cook
This bread is so fast and easy to make – ready in under 30 minutes. There’s nothing to knead, roll, or shape, and no yeast involved. The dense yet springy bread is baked in a pan and sliced after baking, such a time and energy saver. The butter, sour cream, and cheese keep it flavor, and exceedingly soft and moist. No need for refrigerated tubes of dough when you can make your own bread from scratch in the same amount of time.

Instructions
0 Preheat oven to 425F. Line an 8×8 baking pan with aluminum foil, spray with cooking spray; set aside. 1 In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter, about 1 minute. Pour butter into prepared pan; set aside. 2 In a large bowl, combine flour, cheese, seasoning blend, baking powder, optional salt, and whisk to combine; set aside. 3 In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup milk and sour cream until smooth. 4 Pour wet mixture over dry, folding to incorporate. Batter will be very thick, and dense, with lumps. If your batter is so thick it resembles paste, add up to 1/4 cup milk, or as necessary, to thin it out. 5 Carefully turn batter out into pan, right on top of the melted butter. Smooth batter lightly with a spatula and push it into the corners. If some of the butter sloshes up and covers the batter, it’s okay. 6 With a knife, score the batter into 9 pieces (3 horizontal slices, 3 vertical slices); be careful not to slice too deeply and rip the foil. Scoring the batter makes post-baking slicing easier. 7 Bake for about 22 to 24 minutes, or until bread is set, domed, golden, and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Allow bread to cool in pan for about 5 minutes before slicing and serving. If any butter pooled in bottom of pan, drizzle it over the top. Serve with butter, cream cheese, olive oil or your favorite dip. Bread is best fresh, but will keep airtight for up to 4 days or in the freezer for up to 3 months.View original recipe
