Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method
-------- ------------ --------------------------------
2 3/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
3/4 cup butter or margarine
1 1/4 cups sugar -- divided
3 eggs
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 cup 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.
