Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14.75 oz canned salmon (drained and flaked)
- 1 cup breadcrumbs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup onion (finely chopped)
- 2 tbsp lemon juice
- 2 tbsp butter (melted)
- 1 tsp dried dill
- 0.5 tsp salt
- 0.25 tsp black pepper
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a loaf pan with cooking spray or a small amount of oil.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the flaked salmon, breadcrumbs, milk, and eggs. Mix well to ensure the ingredients are evenly distributed.
Add the chopped onion, lemon juice, melted butter, dried dill, salt, and black pepper to the mixture. Stir until fully incorporated.
Transfer the mixture into the prepared loaf pan. Press it gently into the pan to form an even layer, ensuring there are no air pockets.
Place the loaf pan in the preheated oven and bake for 45 minutes, or until the top is golden brown and the loaf is set.
Remove the salmon loaf from the oven and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing.
Serve warm with your choice of sides or a drizzle of lemon sauce for added flavor.
