Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 3 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
- 1.5 cups milk
- 1 cup low sodium smoked salmon, chopped
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
- 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon lemon zest
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with some additional melted butter or non-stick spray.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and granulated sugar. Whisk together to ensure they are well blended.
In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and milk until they are fully combined.
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.
Fold in the low sodium smoked salmon, softened cream cheese, fresh dill, ground black pepper, and lemon zest. Gently mix them into the batter until evenly distributed.
Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.
Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.
Slice the bread once cooled and serve it with additional cream cheese or a light spread of your choice as an appetizer or snack.
