- ½ cup dill pickle juice
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

Instructions:

Preheat the Oven:

Combine Wet and Dry Ingredients:

Add the Pickles:

Pour into the Pan:

Bake:
- Bake for about 50-60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean and the bread is golden brown on top.

Serve:
