Alabama Pecanbread is a classic Southern dessert with a dense, cake-like texture, packed with crunchy pecans, and a rich, sweet flavor. Perfect for gatherings or an indulgent snack, this pecanbread recipe is simple to make yet incredibly satisfying.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking dish with butter or non-stick spray.
In a large bowl, stir together the granulated sugar, brown sugar, beaten eggs, and vegetable oil until fully combined.
Stir in the self-rising flour and salt until well combined. Mix in the vanilla extract, then fold in the finely chopped pecans.
Pour the batter into the prepared baking dish, spreading it evenly. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out mostly clean.
Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
