Ingredients
3 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons sugar
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup dill pickle juice
1/2 cup chopped dill pickles
1/4 cup melted butter
1/2 cup milk
1 large egg
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, combine the flour, sugar, baking soda, baking powder, garlic powder, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the melted butter, milk, egg, and dill pickle juice until well combined.
- Gradually add the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined.
- Fold in the chopped dill pickles.
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and smooth the top.
- Bake for 45–50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
- Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Notes
- For a cheese variation, add 1/2 cup of shredded cheddar cheese to the batter.
- If you like spice, try mixing in chopped jalapeños or red pepper flakes for a spicy kick.
- To make it gluten-free, replace the all-purpose flour with a gluten-free flour blend.
- This bread can be frozen for up to 3 months. Wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and foil, then thaw before serving.
- To make the bread fluffier, be careful not to overmix the batter.
- For added crunch, try adding nuts like chopped walnuts or seeds like sunflower seeds to the batter.
