Makes one 9x5 inch loaf

- 1/2 cup pecans, toasted for 5 minutes in a 350F oven and then coarsely chopped
- 1 medium apple, cored and diced finely (leave the skin on- it's good for you!)
- 8 tablespoons (one stick) softened butter
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 3/4 cups dark amber maple syrup
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 cups all purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Whisk the flour, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a small mixing bowl and set aside.
- In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and brown sugar until fluffy with a electric mixer. Add the eggs, one at a time while beating and then add the syrup and vanilla extract.
- Stir in the apple, pecans and bacon and then stir in the flour mixture a little at a time until fully incorporated.
- Pour the mixture into a 9 x 5 inch well buttered loaf pan. Bake in a pre heated 350F oven for 50 to 60 minutes or until that toothpick comes out clean.

We just had this for breakfast this morning -- WONDERFUL! The bacon is subtle and the cake is moist, with so many different textures and pops of complimentary flavors. Thank you for creating and sharing this great recipe!

I feel your pain. I've had similar problems in the past. But your recipe looks fabulous anyway.

Thanks so much! I've asked the editors for their help so hopefully I'll have the ingredient list in its entirety soon.

NOTE TO ALL: I'm trying to add 8 tablespoons softened butter and 1 medium apple, cored and finely chopped with the skin on to the ingredient list. Will keep trying...for some reason these ingredients are being "rejected" by the system.
