Thick and hearty this apple-pecan bread is nothing less than stellar.

The other day I was rummaging around on the internet trying to find fall dessert recipes that I have yet to make. I came across this lovely apple-pecan sweet bread recipe over on the Small Town Woman blog and I thought I’d give it a try. Boy oh boy, am I EVER glad that I did! This isn’t your average sweet bread, folks, This is something magically delicious. Prepare to be amazed.

There is an apple orchard just up the road from my house so I took my youngest son, who homeschools, up there with me to pick out some apples so we could make this bread. I love impromptu homeschool field trips!

Quick Tip: To toast pecans just spread them on a baking and pop them in the oven at 350 degrees for about 6 – 8 minutes. Toast them whole and then chop them after they cool. If you don’t want to purchase applesauce just substitute 2 more tablespoons of oil – Small Town Woman

This Maple Bacon Monkey Bread is a bit on the daring side, but with the right ingredients, a bit of a savory addition to a sweet treat can turn out brilliantly. It’s a surprisingly fast and easy recipe that will soon become the favorite of your whole family. When I say that everything is better with bacon, I normally make an exception for dessert items. But I am one to try anything at least once (I was the ten-year-old who never needed a kid’s menu to find something I’d eat at a nice restaurant), and this… well, it works.

Needless to say, if I’d had this as a breakfast item back in the day, I’d have eaten breakfast a lot more than I actually did. That’s why I try to make this delicious breakfast for my kids at least a few times a month.

I know it is a bit sugary but if you substitute the sugar with stevia baking blend there is no negative impact on your glycemic index. Genius!
