CHRISTMAS EGGNOG BREAD



Christmas Eggnog Bread image

This came from a friend. I made this as written and it turns out beautifully every time. I always include a loaf of this bread in my Christmas crates that we make up for my family. I have included 3 variations I came up with. We love this bread toasted. Yes...toasted. What can possibly be wrong about toasted cake? Try it...you just might like it. Try it for breakfast instead of regular toast. This makes a large loaf and freezes beautifully.

APRICOT PECAN EGGNOG BREAD



Apricot Pecan Eggnog Bread image

This is based on truebrit's Eggnog Bread (#103993) which is delicious. Since I'm not really a fan of raisins or cherries, I substituted dried apricots, plus I increased the amount of pecans. The original recipe calls for a regular loaf pan baked at 350F for 70 minutes. I use 3 tiny loaf pans (3in. x 5 1/2in. x 2 in.). at 325F for a about 50 minutes, and substitute Splenda for the sugar.

2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup eggnog
1 cup pecans, chopped
1 (6 ounce) package dried apricots, chopped

Steps:

  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together butter, Splenda and eggs.
  • Combine flour, baking powder and salt. Stir into butter mixture alternately with the eggnog.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, ripe apricots. This will give your bread the best flavor.
  • Toast the macadamia nuts. This will enhance their flavor and make them more crunchy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. This will ensure that the bread is cooked through.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the bread to set.

Conclusion:

Apricot macadamia eggnog bread is a delicious and festive bread that is perfect for the holiday season. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. This bread is a great way to use up leftover eggnog and is also a great gift for friends and family.
