Pecan Corn Bread
Updated: May 22, 2021
This bread may sound quite unusual, but if you’re a fan of corn bread, you’ll enjoy this one. The pecans in this bread are an interesting addition along with the crunch of the cornmeal. I made it into a loaf, but you can also make it into muffins. It’s delicious with melted butter. We actually used it to make French toast with a fruit salad.

Ingredients:
11/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/3 cup sugar
1 Tablespoon baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup melted butter
2 eggs
1 1/2 cup half and half
1/2 cup sunflower seeds or pecans, chopped
Yields: 1 9-inch loaf
Prep Time: 10 minutes
Cook Time: 45-50 minutes
Preheat oven 375°F.
Mix dry ingredients.
Beat together half and half, eggs and butter.
Add the liquid to the dry ingredients and mix with a wooden spoon.
Add the nuts. Mix well and pour into a loaf pan.
Bake for 45-50 minutes until a cake tester comes out clean.
