How to Make Easy Salmon Cracker Spread

Preheat your oven to 400°F if using fresh salmon.
Lightly season the salmon with salt and pepper, then place it on a foil-lined baking sheet and bake for 12 minutes.
Carefully remove the skin from the baked salmon and transfer it to a medium-sized bowl.
Use a fork to flake the salmon into bite-sized pieces, then add cream cheese, mayonnaise, dill, salt, pepper, lemon juice, and lemon zest.
Stir everything together until well combined and chill in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
