Ingredients

1 ½ cups brown sugar divided
⅔ cup pecans finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon divided 1 teaspoon for the batter, 1 teaspoon for the topping
2 ¼ cup all purpose flour divided
1 teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup milk
⅓ cup vegetable oil
1 large egg
2 tablespoons butter unsalted, melted

Instructions

Preheat your oven to 350º Fahrenheit. Spray a 9x5” bread pan with cooking spray. Line the bread pan with a parchment paper sling for easier removal.
Stir ½ cup brown sugar, pecans and 1 teaspoon cinnamon in a small mixing bowl. Set aside.
Mix 1 cup brown sugar, 2 cups flour, baking powder and salt in a large mixing bowl. Whisk the milk, oil and the egg in a separate medium mixing bowl. Add the egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir together. The batter will be a little lumpy and thick.
Spoon approximately half of the batter into the prepared pan.
Top with half of the cinnamon sugar mixture. Pour the remaining batter over the top.
Combine the remaining ¼ cup of flour, 1 teaspoon cinnamon, and 1 cup brown sugar in a separate bowl, pour and the melted butter into the dry mixture until crumbly. Sprinkle the topping over the batter.
Bake for 1 hour. The topping will be toasted and an inserted toothpick should come out clean. Cool in the pan for 15 minutes before removing to a cooling rack to finish cooling.
