This bread is DELISH!!! So good I can eat it plain! But toast it and spread with cream cheese or butter and its amazing! It calls for walnuts, but I think toasted pecans would be wonderful in this!!! (and craisins too)

Let this mixture set until bubbly, 10-15 min. Knead in 4 c flour and walnuts, kneading until well mixed, adding more flour as needed 1/4 c at a time, until nice ball of dough has formed. Turn dough into a greased/sprayed large bowl, turn dough over to coat both sides, cover with plastic wrap, allow to rise in warm place until doubled in size.
