My husband and I really enjoyed this sweet bread. The kumquat fruit is extremely juicy and tasty, with a sweet outer peel and slightly tart inner flesh.

Time 1h

Number Of Ingredients 10

2/3 c milk
2 large eggs, beaten
2 Tbsp oil
2 c all-purpose flour
3/4 c granulated sugar
1 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda
3/4 c pureed kumquats (about 2 to 2 1/4 cups halved kumquats before pureeing)
3/4 c chopped pecans

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Lightly grease an 8x5-inch loaf pan; set aside.
  • 2. To puree kumquats: wash the kumquats and cut each one in half. Remove seeds. Place kumquat halves in food processor and process until pureed; set aside. (I actually finely chopped mine rather than pureeing them, and it worked out just fine.)
  • 3. In a mixing bowl, combine milk, eggs and oil.
  • 4. In another bowl, mix flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and baking soda. Add liquid mixture to the dry ingredients, and stir until moistened. Fold in pureed kumquats and pecans.
  • 5. Bake in a 350° oven for 50-60 minutes. Cool, then remove from pan. Excellent served with orange marmalade.

I'm not a huge fan of kumquats, but I thought I'd give this recipe a try. I was pleasantly surprised! The bread is really good and the kumquats add a nice touch of flavor.

This bread is a great way to use up leftover kumquats. I had a bunch of them from a recent trip to the farmers market and I didn't know what to do with them. This bread was the perfect solution.

I had some trouble finding kumquats, but I finally found them at a specialty grocery store. The bread was worth the effort, though. It's so moist and flavorful.

This bread is a bit too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I might try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This kumquat pecan bread was a delightful surprise! The combination of sweet and tart kumquats with crunchy pecans was simply divine. The bread itself was moist and fluffy, with a tender crumb. Overall, this recipe is a keeper and I highly recommend
