What Kind of Pecan Recipes are Included?
We've chosen a combination of traditional recipes along with some with a new twist. We do love my Mama's Southern Style Pecan Pie, but it's fun to think outside the box too, and these bloggers have put some interesting spins on cooking with pecans.
We have them organized into the type of dish to make it easier to scan through if you're looking for something special. But, if you can take the time to visit them all, you'll be glad you did.

Recently add on Biscuits and Burlap is Homemade Cinnamon Bread. It's a yummy yeast bread easy enough for a beginning bread maker and makes just a small loaf (though you can make two from one dough recipe if you have a crowd to feed.)

Katie Dunn says
My grandpa just gave me a giant bag of specialty pecans, and so I have been looking for recipes of things that I can cook. I really like the idea of making a southern pecan praline cake, because the picture that you have above looks absolutely delicious! However, I think that I might substitute the pralines for almonds.
Pam says
Enjoy, Katie!
