  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cup brown sugar, packed
  • 1 cup vegetable oil
  • 4 large eggs, beaten
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Directions

  1. 1

    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.

  4. 4

    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.

  5. 5

    Remove the dish from the oven and allow it to cool for at least 15 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature.
