This Butter Pecan Bread with Cream Cheese Butter Pecan Glaze is incredible, especially if you a pecan lover! I have used many different recipes, but this recipe is my favorite. You end up with a super moist butter pecan bread. And the glaze on top just adds such a great sweetness to it.
The whole thing is a home run, especially with a hot cup of coffee on a Saturday morning.
