I wanted to save this in my folder, but noticed that the "pecan's" are missing from the list of ingredients. When they are added, I will try this recipe.

This is delicious! To make it extra yummy I made a kind of streusel layer with butter, oats, brown sugar, and cinnamon, layered it over half the batter and then spooned the rest over top. It made for a deliciously moist middle! This is definitely a keeper!
