Eggnog quick bread
Are you an eggnog fan? We buy it every year, but I don’t drink milk at all (just preference), so it’s not that appealing to me. I do like the flavor and I’ll have a sip or two, but that’s about it.
Greg is the one that enjoys it the most or maybe it’s the brandy that he adds that he likes best!
We usually end up with a lot leftover, so instead of tossing it out adding it to baked goods sounds like better plan to me!
This recipe doesn’t call for any proofing time. Mix the ingredients, bake, cool and add the glaze.
