Ingredients

Scale

Dry Ingredients

  • 3 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Wet Ingredients

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup chopped dill pickles
  • 1/4 cup pickle juice
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan and set it aside to prepare for baking.
  2. Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and granulated sugar until evenly blended.
  3. Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate bowl, combine the melted unsalted butter, chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, eggs, and milk. Mix these ingredients until they are thoroughly incorporated.
  4. Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients: Pour the wet ingredient mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined, being careful not to overmix to keep the bread tender.
  5. Prepare for Baking: Pour the batter into the greased loaf pan, spreading it out evenly for uniform baking.
  6. Bake the Bread: Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes. Test doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center; it should come out clean when the bread is fully baked.
  7. Cool the Bread: Remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes to set its structure.
  8. Transfer and Cool Completely: After 10 minutes, carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
  9. Serve: Slice the cooled dill pickle bread and serve it plain or with your favorite spreads for a delightful snack or side.

Notes

  • Do not overmix the batter to avoid a dense bread texture.
  • Use fresh dill pickles and pickle juice for the best flavor impact.
  • This bread pairs wonderfully with cream cheese or smoked salmon as a creative appetizer.
  • Store leftover bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for longer freshness.
  • To reheat, warm slices lightly in a toaster or oven before serving.
