These are very good! I wanted to see how sweet bread made without eggs would compare with that with a high egg content. This bread is not rich, like bread made with egg, but it is still very good and also quite economical.I would not follow the directions as to adding such a lot of flour in the beginning, but rather add it slowly, so that you don't get the dough too stiff. I needed about 3 1/2 cups of flour total. I also did not use as much butter as listed - I simply spread the butter thinly on the dough, and used probably less than half called for. I also did not chop the pecans, and used more, because I wanted to finish the bag. Thank you for such a nice recipe.
