YUM! This is a wonderful little loaf recipe! Came out just like cake, with streusel mix in the middle, and on top. Very easy to put together...I popped it in the oven after supper, and it did its thing while I cleaned the kitchen. It was my pleasure to make this for our cook-a-thon for you, Sue. We really enjoyed! Thanks for posting, Laudee

Hi. I made the recipe and triple checked for accuracy of my measurements. It did not make a batter, but instead a fairly stiff dough that I had to carefully spread in the pan, It's baking, so I don't know yet if its OK. Anyone else know about this? Also pls specify the size of the pan, thanks........ So it's done now. I'm happy about how it looks and smells. I baked it in the 5x9 pan for 45 minutes. The streusel didn't stick too well on the top, but I'll we can sprinkle it on the bread anyway.

Wonderful recipe which I tagged to use up some sour cream. We did skip the nuts, but otherwise made as directed. We used 1 mini-size loaf pan and a medium loaf pan - cooking the mini one for 45 minutes and the larger pan for 55 minutes. Thanks for sharing!
