Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake is an excellent appetizer or a snack. Great to stretch a little bit of smoked salmon into an elegant and unique way. Perfect addition to a seafood platter. Delicious with a glass of wine.

Savoury cakes/loaves/quick breads really deserve to be more popular. Wouldn’t you love to have a slice of flavourful something that tastes like a mix between the most delicious gourmet sandwich and cake?

Add a cold glass of beer or some wine and I think I’d be in heaven. As much as I love cheese, I love carbs even more and savoury cake is my absolutely favourite appetizer!

Different kinds of Savoury Cakes

I make various savoury cakes often. I wrote about my Blue cheese, pear and walnut cake recipe many moons ago.

I posted Blue Cheese, Pecans and Dates Bread relative recently.

I also love savoury muffins, like these Savoury Herbs and Cheese Muffins.

And today I am sharing Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake with you.

This collection of 16 Delicious Budget-Friendly Smoked Salmon Recipes will let you enjoy smoked salmon without breaking the bank. From appetizers to brunch to pastas you'll find something for any taste. You can even make your own smoked salmon! Perfect recipes for Mother's Day celebration | Imagelicious

Delicious Roundup of 16 Budget Friendly Smoked Salmon Recipes

If you’ve been reading my blog for a while, then you know that I love smoked salmon and I also love using it in a way that is budget friendly, for example, Affordable Canned and Smoked Salmon Rillettes or Smoked Salmon Croissant Strata.

Here’s a delicious roundup of 16 delicious Budget-Friendly Smoked Salmon Recipes.

How to make Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake

This recipe, like many other that I have on the site, uses very little smoked salmon for maximum flavour. It is also a one-bowl recipe.

  • Chop the dill and smoked salmon
  • Grate the cheese
  • In a large bowl, whisk together all the wet ingredients
  • Add the dry ingredients and lightly mix
  • Add the chopped dill, smoked salmon, and grated cheese
  • Pour into prepared baking pans and bake

Easy-peasy!

How to enjoy Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake

I recommend this Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake with a glass of white wine.

It’ll also be perfect as part of a seafood platter when you are entertaining.

You can bake the loaf (or mini loaves like I did for the photos) a day before thus saving time and energy right before you have people over.

It’s great to serve alongside a seafood bisque.

How to store Smoked Salmon Savoury Cake

You can store this Savoury Cake in an airtight container in the fridge for up to a week, although I recommend eating it within 3-5 days as the cake will get a bit dry the longer it sits.

And if you have any dill leftovers, check out my mind-blowing trick how to store herbs for many weeks.

Ingredients

  • 3 large eggs
  • 3 tablespoons canola or vegetable oil
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 1/5 cup flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon sugar (optional)
  • 1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
  • 1/2 cup diced smoked salmon (about 100 g)
  • 1/2 cup finely chopped dill
  • salt, pepper to taste
US Customary - Metric

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 350F.
  • In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until they are smooth, about 1 minute.
  • Add the oil, milk and mix.
  • Add the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt and pepper (if using) and mix just until the flour disappears.
  • Add the cheese, smoked salmon, and dill. Mix until combined well.
  • Butter and flour a loaf pan. Use either 9x5 or 11x4 or 4 small 3x5 pans like I used for photos. Alternatively you can line the pan with parchment paper.
  • Transfer the batter to the prepared pan and bake for about 45-50 minutes (see note) or until a toothpick inserted in the middle of the bread comes out clean. 

Notes

My oven notoriously takes longer to bake everything, so I'd start checking after about 35-40 minutes.
 
I personally do not add salt or pepper into this Smoked Salmon and Dill Savoury Cake. I find that there's enough salt in cheese and smoked salmon but I also like less salty foods. So, you could add 1/4 teaspoon of salt if you'd like.

    Hi Julia,
    So wanting to make this, can you let me know do you use US or metric cups and spoons?
    Thanks Carol.

      I use US cups but I’m pretty sure you can use metric measures also. This recipe is very forgiving
