Artichoke-Pecan Bread 




Source of Recipe


Vegetarian Times Apr/2004 pg. 64


List of Ingredients




1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 stick (1/2 cup) unsalted butter, softened
1 tsp cinnamon
1/2 cup coarsely chopped pecans
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1/4 tsp salt
2 cups flour
2 large eggs
3/4 cup sugar
About 1 1/2 cups water-packed artichoke hearts, drained and rinsed

Recipe



1. Preheat oven to 350°. Butter a 9x5" loaf pan, and line bottom with wax paper.

2. Squeeze artichoke hearts gently to remove some excess liquid. Put in a food processor, and process until finely chopped, stopping and scraping down sides of bowl as needed, for a total of about 1 cup. Set aside.

3. Beat butter with sugar until light and creamy. Add eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition.

4. Sift together flour, baking powder, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Add dry ingredients and pecans to egg mixture. Stir, using a few quick strokes with a large spoon, until just combined. Spoon batter evenly into pan.

5. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into center of loaf comes out clean.

6. Remove from oven, leave in pan for 10 minutes and take out of pan, peeling off wax paper. Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing. Serves 8 to 10
