Ingredients
To create this delicious Dill Pickle Bread, you’ll need a few simple ingredients that you might already have in your pantry. Here’s what you’ll need:
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1 cup dill pickle juice
- 1/4 cup vegetable oil
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup chopped dill pickles
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped (or 1 teaspoon dried dill)
If you’re feeling adventurous, consider substituting the vegetable oil with olive oil for a richer flavor, or add a pinch of cayenne pepper for a little heat.
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, garlic powder, and onion powder.
- In a separate bowl, combine the dill pickle juice, vegetable oil, and eggs. Whisk until well blended.
- Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients, stirring gently until just combined. Do not overmix.
- Fold in the chopped dill pickles and fresh dill. I like to add a little extra dill for that punch of flavor reminiscent of my abuela’s homemade salsas, where herbs reigned supreme.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top with a spatula.
- Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The aroma will transport you to culinary bliss, much like the scents wafting through our family kitchen on a Sunday afternoon.
- Allow the bread to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
