Eggnog Bread

Eggnog is one of those things that I get excited about every year because I think that I love it. But I really don’t. And you’d think I’d remember that from year to year but it never fails: I rush out to buy a carton and then gag on the first sip. Someone please remind me of this next year so I don’t get my hopes up again.

So since I had a carton of eggnog to use up and eggnog is the Thirsty Thursday theme of the week, I decided to bake with it. Surprisingly, I really liked this bread. Until I put the glaze on it which is pretty much straight eggnog. But the bread itself just has a very subtle eggnog taste that’s perfect for those of us that want to like eggnog but just don’t. My husband and kids loved it with the glaze though so if you’re an eggnog fan, definitely add it.

Nicole made homemade cooked eggnog with bourbon!

    ooo yum! i’m not a fan of eggnog (drinking it wise) but baking with it is totally ok, especially if it comes out as moist as your bread looks! that glaze is drinkable :)

    I am the same way…let’s remind each other next year okay? But baking with it is perfectly delicious so we’re all good.

    This recipe does not work with a standard sized loaf pan. It makes too much batter for 1 pan and not enough for 2. I do not have mini loaf pans so next time I will make muffins…and try to prevent the batter from exploding all over my oven.

    I made this bread for Christmas Day and got rave reviews from all my guests (adults as well as teens). Will be making it again.
