Cinnamon Nut Loaf Recipe

Prep: 20 min. Bake: 30 min. + cooling

Yield: 8-10 Servings

20 30 50

Ingredients

1/3 cup finely chopped pecans or walnuts
1/4 cup sugar
3 tablespoons butter, melted
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
2 tubes (7-1/2 ounces each) refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon 2% milk

Directions

In a small bowl, combine the nuts, sugar, butter and cinnamon. Separate biscuits; flatten slightly. Place about 1/2 teaspoon of nut mixture on one side of each biscuit; fold other side over filling. Press edges with a fork to seal. Forming five rows, arrange biscuits folded side down in a greased 8-in. x 4-in. loaf pan. Spoon remaining nut mixture over top.
Bake at 350° for 25-30 minutes or until golden brown. Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pan to a wire rack. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine confectioners' sugar and milk; drizzle over warm bread. Cut into slices or pull apart. Yield: 8-10 servings.
