Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare a loaf pan by greasing it or lining it with parchment paper.

In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, and ground black pepper until well combined.

In a separate bowl, beat the eggs then stir in milk and olive oil or melted butter until combined.

Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined.

Fold in shredded cheese and chopped fresh herbs until distributed.

Spoon the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.

Bake for 45–50 minutes or until the top is golden brown and a toothpick comes out clean.

Let the bread cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack.
