KUMQUAT PECAN BREAD
I saw this recipe on the Kumquat Grower's website and decided to make it. My husband and I really enjoyed it. The kumquat fruit is extremely juicy and tasty, with a sweet outer peel and slightly tart inner flesh. But pureeing the peel and pulp together offers a sweet, fruity addition that produces a wonderful loaf that can be served as a side dish, quick breakfast (topped with marmalade) or as a snack. You can use any chopped nuts, but most copies of this recipe listed pecans as the preferred nut, and it's what I used and think it worked out well.

Tips:
- Choose Fresh Kumquats: Use fresh, ripe kumquats for the best flavor and texture in your bread.
- Zest and Juice the Kumquats: Zest the kumquats before juicing to extract the maximum flavor. Remove any seeds from the kumquats before juicing.
- Use Unsalted Butter: Unsalted butter allows you to control the amount of salt in your bread. If using salted butter, reduce the amount of added salt by half.
- Cream Butter and Sugar Together: Creaming the butter and sugar together until light and fluffy helps incorporate air into the batter, resulting in a tender and moist bread.
- Add Eggs One at a Time: Add the eggs one at a time to the butter-sugar mixture, beating well after each addition. This helps prevent the batter from curdling.
- Measure Flour Correctly: To ensure accurate measurements, spoon the flour into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife.
- Add Kumquat Zest, Juice, and Nuts: Fold the kumquat zest, juice, and nuts into the batter until just combined. Overmixing can result in a tough bread.
- Bake at the Right Temperature: Bake the bread at the specified temperature and for the recommended time. Overbaking can dry out the bread.
- Cool Completely: Allow the bread to cool completely before slicing and serving. This helps the bread set and develop its full flavor.
