Ingredients

• 3 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 1 stick unsalted butter, melted
• 1.5 cups milk
• 1 cup low sodium smoked salmon, chopped
• 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
• 2 tablespoons fresh dill, chopped
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1 teaspoon lemon zest

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9x5-inch loaf pan with some additional melted butter or non-stick spray.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, baking powder, and granulated sugar. Whisk together to ensure they are well blended.

Step 3

In a separate medium bowl, whisk together the melted butter and milk until they are fully combined.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and gently stir until just combined. Do not overmix; the batter should be slightly lumpy.

Step 5

Fold in the low sodium smoked salmon, softened cream cheese, fresh dill, ground black pepper, and lemon zest. Gently mix them into the batter until evenly distributed.

Step 6

Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, smoothing the top with a spatula.

Step 7

Bake in the preheated oven for 40-45 minutes, or until the bread is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.

Step 8

Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely.

Step 9

Slice the bread once cooled and serve it with additional cream cheese or a light spread of your choice as an appetizer or snack.
