Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 3/4 c All-purpose flour
2 1/2 ts Baking powder
1/2 ts Salt
3/4 c Butter or margarine
1 1/4 c Sugar, divided
3 Eggs
1 1/2 ts Vanilla extract
1 c Dairy sour cream
2 ts Cinnamon, ground
1/2 c Pecans, chopped

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Combine flour, balking
powder, and salt in a small bowl until well blended.
In a large bowl, beat butter and 1 cup of the sugar
until creamy and light. Beat in eggs, one at a time
and vanilla until well blended. Beat in flour mixture
and sour cream, alternately, beginning and ending with
the dry ingredients. In a small bowl, combine
remaining 1/4 cup sugar and the cinnamon. Spoon about
one third of the batter into greased and floured 9 x
5-inch loaf pan. Sprinkle with one third of the
cinnamon mixture. Repeat with remaining batter and
cinnamon mixture until all is used up. Sprinkle the
top of the bread with pecans, pressing them in
slightly with your fingers. Bake 50 to 55 minutes, or
until a wooden pick inserted in the middle comes out
clean. Cool bread 10 minutes in the pan on a wire
rack. Remove from pan and cool completely on rack.
