Cherry Nut Bread
Chopped pecans and maraschino cherries perk up this pound cake-like bread. The pretty slices are rich and moist with a crisp golden crust. This is my husband's favorite bread.

Bread was dry. Would not make again.
So delicious and because it makes 4 loaves it’s great to give as presents in decorative packaging with pretty ribbons!
I love this quick bread! It's moist and pretty, and goes well with a cup of coffee in the morning.
My mom made these for christmas, she was tired of making her usual banana bread. This bread was wonderful! Loved the cherry flavor. I logged on to get the recipe myself, so I can make more!
These make wonderful Christmas gifts!Every one loves them!
