Tips & Tricks

• Be warned, this bread is a little on the dense side but it is truly delicious and hold up perfectly to a few seconds in the toaster

• You can replace the pecan oil with butter

• I do not recommend cutting back on the sugar if you prefer a sweeter bread

• To create a marbling effect, take a knife or skewer and swirl the crumble into the batter on each layer

• As you can see, my bread got a sad streak on the bottom. If yours does this too, theres is absolutely nothing wrong with it, it just has a little character.
