The name is a little misleading. This isn’t bread that you typically think of when you think of ‘bread’. Alabama Pecanbread is a sweet and dense dessert. It has a nice caramel flavor and full of pecans. Sweet Pecan Bread is lighter than a blondie or brownie, but denser than a cake.

If that sounds odd, it’s not. It’s actually very good and hard to stop eating once you have one bite.

Sweet Alabama pecan bread has a similar taste as these Caramel Blondies, but a slightly different texture.

Although it is a little difficult to describe what Alabama Pecanbread actually is. The closest thing I think of are ‘blondies‘ when I describe what pecan bread is. However, it may be hard to describe but it’s not hard at all to make. While I did use an electric mixer, it’s not necessary. You can use a whisk and arm power to mix it together.

Additionally, you can use any nut. Pecans are popular in the South. Almonds and walnuts would be good.

One cup oil is a lot of oil and you can reduce that to 3/4 cup if you want to. However, I don’t recommend reducing more than that.
