Meet Your New Favorite Side Dish: Southern Pecan Bread
Oh friendssssssss. I am so so sorry I’ve been holding out on you for so long with this recipe. It’s a recipe that I’m sure has been around the internet and at church potlucks for years, but doesn’t seem to be well known…at least in my little bubble of life. So I am going to assume you have never had it, or heard of it too…k?

The crazy thing is that while it’s probably, mostly a dessert, my favorite way to enjoy it is as a side dish. Example: whenever you would serve corn bread, serve Southern Pecan Bread instead and watch people’s heads explode. No lie, it will happen. With BBQ Chicken? Serve it. With coffee? Serve it. With Thanksgiving dinner? SERVE.ITTTTT. With butter.
What Is Pecan Bread?
It’s a crazy combo of an ultra soft cookie, but also kind of like a bread. I don’t know how to describe it, but I have a feeling you will love it as much as I do! The recipe is very easy, and I like to make it the night before I’m serving it because it just gets better when it sits overnight. The flavors and texture seem to really have time to get to know each other as it sits and cools. Just cut it before you’re ready to serve!
How to Make Southern Pecan Bread
The batter is sweet, and certainly if you have a nut allergy this is a recipe to stay away from. I know I will get asked if you can sub in chocolate chips for the nuts…and while you can, the savoriness of the nuts really balance out the sweetness.
Spread the batter into a lined 9×13 pan…
…and bake it until it’s golden at the edges and set in the middle. Like I said before, it needs to cool before you slice it up.
This one is pretty much guaranteed to be a requested recipe from friends and family!

PIN for later: If you don’t have self rising flour: 1 cup self rising flour = 1 cup all purpose flour = 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder + 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt.
