This recipe is simple to follow and results in a moist, delicious bread perfect for breakfast or a sweet snack. With just a few basic ingredients, you can whip up this tasty loaf in no time.

Ingredients:

2 tbsp vegetable oil
30g
1 cup milk (1% fat)
240g
2 eggs
100g
1 cup self-raising flour
150g
1/3 cup pecans
40g

Instructions:

1. Preheat Oven:
- Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). This ensures it's at the right temperature by the time your batter is ready.
2. Prepare the Pan:
- Grease a loaf pan with a little vegetable oil or line it with parchment paper to prevent the bread from sticking.
3. Mix Wet Ingredients:
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil, 1 cup of milk, and 2 eggs until the mixture is smooth and well combined.
4. Combine Dry Ingredients:
- Gradually add the 1 cup of self-raising flour to the wet ingredients. Mix until just blended. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the bread dense.
5. Add Pecans:
- Gently fold in the 1/3 cup of pecans into the batter until they are evenly distributed.
6. Pour into Pan:
- Pour the batter into the prepared loaf pan, spreading it out evenly.
7. Bake:
- Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 35-45 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center of the bread comes out clean.
8. Cool:
- Once baked, remove the pan from the oven and allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes. Then transfer the bread to a wire rack to cool completely.
9. Serve:
- Slice and enjoy your Honey Pecan Bread plain or with a spread of your choice.

Tips:

- Use room temperature ingredients: Ensure that your milk, eggs, and vegetable oil are at room temperature before mixing. This helps the batter come together more smoothly and results in better texture.

- Don't overmix the batter: Mix the wet and dry ingredients until just combined. Overmixing can lead to a dense, tough bread.

- Chop the pecans: Finely chop the pecans before adding them to the batter for a more even distribution and better texture in every bite.

- Check for readiness: Insert a toothpick into the center of the bread to check if it's done. If it comes out clean, the bread is ready. Avoid overbaking as it can dry out the loaf.

- Let it cool: Allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to cool completely. This helps it set and makes it easier to slice.

- Store properly: Store honey pecan bread in an airtight container at room temperature for up to three days, or freeze it for longer storage.

With its delicious combination of honey and pecans, this bread is sure to become a favorite. Whether you enjoy it freshly baked or toasted the next day, honey pecan bread offers a delightful treat that's easy to make and even easier to enjoy. Don't forget to share it with friends and family — they'll be asking for the recipe!
