Savory Rosemary Buttermilk Quick Bread Recipe
This Savory Rosemary Buttermilk Quick Bread Recipe is the perfect addition to any meal. Simple to make, moist and flavorful quick bread with cheese.
It has taken me a few tries to get this savory rosemary buttermilk quick bread recipe right. I knew it would be worth it when I finally figured it out…and it is! This bread is flavorful, moist and easy to make.
The bread dough mixes up quickly and looks a little bit shaggy. This is a good thing! It’s supposed to look that way.
Savory Rosemary Buttermilk Quick Bread for Gift-Giving
I did a lot of testing on this bread because I wanted to be sure it would hold up for gift-giving. It is, of course, delicious fresh from the oven. I wrapped my cooled loaf in plastic wrap and let it sit out for a day. The day-old bread was just as moist and flavorful as the fresh loaf. I then put the remainder of the loaf in the freezer. It was in there for a week. I removed it, allowed it to thaw, and then tasted a slice. Again, very moist and still had all its flavor.
If you aren’t a rosemary lover, I’ve included some substitutions in the notes of the recipe. Anything savory would work well so go ahead and try whatever you like best. I used garlic powder but if you like fresh garlic, that would also be delicious.

Call me crazy, but when I was eating my first slice of this bread, I had a feeling I had tasted it before. I was halfway through the slice when I realized what this bread reminded me of…the Cheddar Bay biscuits at Red Lobster. The parmesan cheese adds a slightly different taste, but I’m betting if that was swapped out with sharp cheddar cheese, it may be a very close copy of those biscuits.
