Ingredients

• 14.75 oz canned salmon
• 2 large eggs
• 0.5 cup milk
• 1 cup dry bread crumbs
• 1 tsp salt
• 0.25 tsp black pepper
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 1 tbsp butter, melted
• 1 tbsp parsley, chopped (optional)

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a loaf pan (approximately 8.5 x 4.5 inches) with butter or non-stick cooking spray.

Step 2

Drain the canned salmon, reserving the liquid. Remove any large bones and break the salmon into small flakes using a fork. Set aside.

Step 3

In a large mixing bowl, beat the eggs until they are well mixed. Add the milk, reserved salmon liquid, and melted butter. Mix until well combined.

Step 4

Stir in the bread crumbs, salt, black pepper, and lemon juice. Mix thoroughly until you have a cohesive mixture.

Step 5

Gently fold in the flaked salmon. If using parsley, stir it in at this stage.

Step 6

Transfer the mixture into the greased loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the loaf is golden brown on top and firm to the touch.

Step 8

Once done, remove the pan from the oven and let the salmon loaf cool for 5-10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm and enjoy!
