Chocolate Chip Bourbon Pecan Quick Bread

Last updated on By 5 Comments This post may contain affiliate links.

Chocolate Chip Bourbon Pecan Quick bread is an old recipe I only made once. Judging by the looks of it, I really need to update this photo. My old notes say the bread was good, so a better photo is in order. Also, that Wild Turkey was just for baking. You need to know that.

    I made this on Saturday - very yummy - I added an extra tablespoon of bourbon (I used Jim Beam Black) and then when it came out of the oven I brushed it with more bourbon - what can I say I love bourbon 🙂

    Oohh yumm this sounds just beautiful. I love bread and adding bourbon is never a bad thing, is it :P?

    That's kind of how I felt when I saw the recipe. The maple syrup is an interesting addition. About muffins, I think it might work! They probably wouldn't have gigantic domes, but they'd be moist and interesting. They'd alos be easier to share.

    Bourbon, chocolate chips, maple syrup...you have my attention! Pardon me while I press my nose against the screen. LOL Although I "might" share this with a few people, I think I shall bake this just for me. 😉 Would this make good muffins?
