“So good! I followed the recipe and then added half a container of blueberries and maybe a cup of pecans— measured with my heart— and it came out PERFECT. I did swap the spices for 3 tsp of pumpkin spice. Baked in a regular pyrex so it’s more cake less brea” — a cook, 5.0★
“This recipe is 10/10 comes out great every time. It’s a family favourite and every time I make it I get compliments. I like that it makes 2 loaves, one to keep at home and one to give away to a friend! I follow the recipe to a T and it has never disappointed.” — a cook, 5.0★
