Yield 12

Number Of Ingredients 10

½ cup margarine
¾ cup white sugar
2 eggs
1 cup buttermilk
1 teaspoon baking soda
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 (10 ounce) jar maraschino cherries, drained and chopped
1 cup chopped pecans

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a 9 x 5 inch loaf pan.
  • In a large bowl, cream butter or margarine and sugar together. Add eggs, and continue mixing until light and fluffy. Add baking soda, salt, and vanilla; mix thoroughly. Alternately add buttermilk and flour to the creamed mixture, mixing only enough to hold ingredients together. Fold in cherries and nuts, mixing lightly. Turn batter into prepared pan.
  • Bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until bread tests done. Cool completely before slicing.
