As the official Silver Spatula taste tester, I guess I'll put leave my mark. This wasn't the best of the amish frienship bread you have made, but very very good. I like it when it's a little burnt on the outside which makes it crispier. Overall a great recipe and the pecans give it an extra bit of flavor. I eat about six to nine slices of the Amish Bread a day.
Make another batch. We only have on loaf left.
