Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 250g
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon dried dill weed
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup buttermilk
  • 1 cup dill pickles finely chopped and well-drained
  • 1/4 cup melted butter 57g, optional

Instructions
 

  • Preheat and Prep Pan:

    Set oven to 350°F (175°C). Butter or spray a 9x5 inch loaf pan and line with parchment.
  • Whisk Dry Ingredients:

    In a large bowl, combine flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and dried dill; whisk until uniform and lump-free.
  • Mix Wet Ingredients:

    In a separate medium bowl, beat eggs until smooth. Stir in buttermilk, then fold in the finely chopped and drained pickles.
  • Combine Wet and Dry:

    Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir gently until just combined; batter may be slightly lumpy. If using, fold in melted butter with a few strokes.
  • Bake the Loaf:

    Pour batter into the prepared pan and level the top. Bake for 50–60 minutes until golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Begin checking at 50 minutes.
  • Cool and Unmold:

    Take out of the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack to cool fully before slicing.
