How to Make Baked Salmon Loaf

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, gently combine 1.5 lbs salmon (flaked), 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1/4 cup milk, 1/4 cup chopped onion, 1 egg, 1 tablespoon lemon juice, 1 teaspoon dill, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  3. Pack the salmon mixture firmly into the prepared loaf pan.
  4. Bake for 30-40 minutes, or until the loaf is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  5. While the loaf is baking, prepare the topping: In a small bowl, combine 1/2 cup crushed Ritz crackers with 2 tablespoons melted butter until moistened.
  6. Sprinkle the cracker topping generously over the salmon loaf during the last 10 minutes of baking.
  7. Let the loaf rest for 5 minutes before slicing and serving with your favorite sides, such as peas and cinnamon applesauce.
