How to Make Holiday Rum Eggnog Bread

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease the bottom of a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a large bowl, beat 2 large eggs until light and frothy.
  3. Add 1 cup granulated sugar, 1 cup eggnog, ½ cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted, 1 teaspoon rum extract, and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Beat until well combined.
  4. In a separate bowl, whisk together 2 cups all-purpose flour, 2 teaspoons baking powder, 1 cup chopped walnuts, ½ teaspoon salt, and ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Pour batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  7. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. Once completely cool, wrap tightly in plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
