Ingredients

Scale

  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese (optional)
  • ¾ cup finely chopped dill pickles
  • ¾ cup pickle juice
  • ½ cup buttermilk (or regular milk + 1 tbsp vinegar)
  • 2 large eggs
  • ¼ cup olive oil (or melted butter)

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line a loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and dill.
  • Fold in shredded cheese and chopped pickles, coating them in the flour mixture.
  • In another bowl, whisk together pickle juice, buttermilk, eggs, and olive oil until smooth.
  • Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and fold gently until just combined.
  • Spoon the thick batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top.
  • Bake for 45-50 minutes, or until a toothpick comes out clean.
  • Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Slice and serve!

Notes

  • Dry the chopped pickles with a paper towel to avoid excess moisture.
