I have an old recipe from Gourmet magazine probably from the 70's or 80's called Maple Pecan Wreath - I make it every Xmas for breakfast. Is this the recipe u might be looking for ?
Hi Chris - Someone was kind enough to find it for me a few years ago. Even went to a relative’s house to look through old issues. I’ll hunt it down for you and send. Such a great recipe!
I have the recipe & picture , it’s the actual page from the Gourmet magazine for the Maple Pecan Wreath- I can send u the picture of the recipe if u like.
Jasmine - This is it indeed and I am totally grateful. You were so kind to do this for me and I hope I can return the favor someday. And I agree with Pegeen above. There could not be a better group of researchers. Thank you to everyone who responded and to Amanda and Merill for this totally awesome sight. I will now go read through more questions and see if I can help someone else. Jasmine - you're a doll!
I don't knowmif you're interested, but that issue of Gourmet magazine is for sale on eBay.

I have learned that the recipe is properly titled "Maple Pecan Wreath" and it was published in Gourmet Magazine December 1983 if anyone can post the recipe for me from the magazine. Must be some collectors out there????
I found this recipe, too: http://www.tarabblog.com/2011/12/maple-cinnamon-twist-wreath.html casting a wide net via the Dogpile search engine. Also try foodblogsearch.com.
This is long shot since I don't know where you live, but try your local library. They may have back issues; some libraries even let you check out bound periodicals.

Thanks. I'm afraid this is not the recipe I need. I also looked on Gourmet website. I had been making it for many years, so probably from pre-web days.

I could not find a thing on the gourmet.com website.
