Ingredients

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup chopped pecans
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened Ensure butter is softened for easy creaming.
  • 1/2 cup honey
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 4 pieces eggs Can substitute with unsweetened applesauce or mashed bananas.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour Divided into two portions.
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

Preparation

  • Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x9 inch baking pan.
  • In a small bowl, combine the chopped pecans with 2 tablespoons of the flour and set aside.
  • In a large bowl, cream together the butter, honey, and sugar until light and fluffy.
  • Beat in the eggs, one at a time, then stir in the vanilla.
  • Whisk together the remaining flour, baking powder, and salt. Gradually add to the creamed mixture, mixing until just incorporated.
  • Fold in the flour-coated pecans.
  • Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan.

Baking

  • Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove to a wire rack to cool completely.

Notes

Store any leftover pecanbread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for about a week. You can also freeze it for up to 3 months; wrap tightly in plastic wrap and aluminum foil.
