HERE IS HOW TO MAKE AN EGGNOG LOAF:
WHERE CAN I FIND THESE INGREDIENTS?
The ingredients to make this delicious eggnog loaf can be found at most grocery stores! Eggnog can be a tricky ingredient to find as it may not be a popular holiday drink in a lot of countries but eggnog generally is on the shelves by September!
Aside from eggnog, you’ll need regular baking ingredients like butter, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, flour, baking powder and nutmeg! All of these should be available within your baking aisle and dairy section!
WHAT ARE THE INGREDIENTS?
The ingredients to make the delicious eggnog loaf are:
- Eggnog
- Eggs
- White Sugar
- Unsalted Butter
- Vanilla
- Flour
- Baking Powder
- Nutmeg
WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?
You don’t need a lot of equipment for this recipe! if you already love baking treats, you should have everything you need already in your home! You’ll want to have a loaf pan or dish, measuring cups and spoons, mixing bowls and a mixing utensil like a spatula!
Here are some of my Amazon kitchen and baking favs!
CAN I SUBSTITUTE/ADD ANYTHING OUT?
I love baking but I haven’t tried any substitutes with this recipe! If you have any dietary restrictions or use specific ingredients, you can try to substitute it out! Here are a few ideas of additions and substations that you can try out!
- Adding some chocolate chips/chunks, tried fruits or nuts
- Glazing the top of the loaf with eggnog glaze (1/4 icing sugar & 1 Tbsp of eggnog)
- Making a cream cheese frosting to go on top
- Making an oat crumble to go on top
WHAT DOES AN EGGNOG LOAF TASTE LIKE?
This eggnog loaf is a dessert that isn’t too sweet but has that rich eggnog flavour in it! The cake itself is very moist and is perfect paired with a hot drink of your choice! Nutmeg is a very prominent spice in eggnog and the additional couple teaspoons added to the batter really takes this to the next level!
HOW LONG DOES IT KEEP FOR?
In an airtight container, this eggnog bread keeps for up to 7 days in the fridge. I highly recommend warming it up for 30 seconds before enjoying! You can even spread a little bit of butter or peanut butter on it! This loaf also freezes so well so you’re able to freeze the bread for up to a month and a half! To enjoy, let thaw or warm up in the microwave or toaster for a few seconds/minutes until warm!
INSPIRATIONS FOR THIS RECIPE?
I LOVE making loaves! Cake is my favourite dessert hands down and I love that loaves like these don’t feel too heavy like a cake with frosting and you’re able to enjoy a little slice everyday with a cup of coffee or drink of choice!
I put eggnog in my coffee pretty much everyday once November hits and enjoying my eggnog coffee with my eggnog loaf is the perfect way to be a little bit festive in my everyday routine!
