Ingredients
- All-Purpose Flour: 3 cups.
- Baking Powder: 1 tablespoon.
- Salt: 1 teaspoon.
- Granulated Sugar: 1/4 cup.

- Chopped Dill Pickles: 1 cup.

Instructions
-
Preheat Oven and Prepare Pan: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan with butter or cooking spray. You can also line it with parchment paper for easier removal.
-
Combine Dry Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar until well combined. This ensures even distribution of the leavening agent.
-
Mix Wet Ingredients: In a separate medium mixing bowl, whisk together the melted butter, chopped dill pickles, pickle juice, eggs, and milk until thoroughly combined.
-
Combine Wet and Dry: Gradually pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients, stirring with a spatula until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay. Overmixing can lead to a tough bread.
-
Pour into Pan: Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan and spread it out evenly with a spatula.
-
Bake: Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer or toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. The baking time may vary slightly depending on your oven.
-
Cool in Pan: Once baked, remove the bread from the oven and let it cool in the pan for 10 minutes. This allows the bread to set slightly, making it easier to remove.
-
Cool Completely: After 10 minutes, carefully remove the bread from the pan and transfer it to a wire rack to cool completely. This prevents the bread from becoming soggy.
-
Slice and Serve: Once the bread has coold completly, use a serrated knife.
