Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1 1/4 teaspoons dried dill
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup milk
- 1 large egg
- 5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted and divided
- 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese
- 2/3 cup dill pickles, roughly chopped and patted dry
Method
- Heat the oven to 350°F. Grease a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan and line the base with baking parchment.
- In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, sugar, baking powder, dill, garlic powder, onion powder, and salt.
- In a second bowl, whisk the milk, the egg, and 4 tablespoons of the melted butter until combined.
- Pour the wet mixture into the dry mixture and stir just until no dry flour remains — do not overmix.
- Fold in the cheddar and the chopped pickles until evenly distributed.
- Scrape the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top. Drizzle over the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted butter.
- Bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the loaf is risen and golden and a skewer inserted in the centre comes out clean.
- Cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then turn out onto a rack. Slice and serve warm or at room temperature.
