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.)

Leave a comment and let us know which ones you want to try first. Sara and I are tempted to divide these yummy pecan recipes up and try them all! And a big Thank You to all the bloggers here who have graciously allowed us to share their recipes and beautiful photos.

Until next time -- We love y'all!

    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.
