Categories     Dessert     Snack

Time 1h20m

Number Of Ingredients 13

1/4 cup unsalted butter ((1/2 stick), at room temperature)
1/2 cup granulated sugar
2 large eggs (at room temperature)
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup white whole wheat flour (or whole wheat pastry flour, or substitute additional all-purpose flour)
1 tablespoon aluminum-free baking powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1 cup prepared eggnog ((I used Trader Joe's light eggnog))
1 tablespoon rum (or brandy or bourbon (or substitute an additional tablespoon eggnog))
1/2 cup powdered sugar ((4 ounces))
1 1/2 tablespoons rum (or brandy or bourbon (whichever you used in the loaf), or eggnog)

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the center of your oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly grease an 8×4-inch loaf pan, then line it with parchment paper so that some of the paper hangs out the sides like handles. Lightly grease the pan once more, then set it aside.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat together the butter and sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, beating for 1 minute and scraping down the bowl after each addition. Beat in the vanilla extract.
  • In a separate bowl, stir together the all-purpose flour, white whole wheat flour, baking powder, nutmeg, and salt.
  • With the mixer running on low speed, add one-third of the flour mixture, then half of the eggnog and all of the rum, the next one-third of the flour mixture, the remaining half of the eggnog, then the final one-third of the flour. Fully incorporate the ingredients between additions before adding the next. Scrape the batter into the prepared loaf pan.
  • Bake the eggnog bread until pale golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, 50 to 60 minutes. Let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then remove from the pan by lifting with the parchment handles. Place on a cooling rack.
  • When the loaf is mostly cooled but still warm to the touch, whisk together the glaze ingredients (powdered sugar and rum/brandy/bourbon or eggnog) in a small bowl.
  • Drizzle the glaze over the loaf, then allow the loaf to stand until the glaze is set and dry. Slice and serve.

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.

ITALIAN CHRISTMAS BREAD WITH EGGNOG GLAZE



Italian Christmas Bread with Eggnog Glaze image

My husband fondly recalls the Anise Bread that his Italian grandmother used to make during the holidays. She evidently never had a recipe (and never used a bread machine!) so this is what I came up with for a quick, special Christmas bread. This rich bread has a wonderful aroma while baking.

Provided by Nancy Ann R.

Categories     Breakfast and Brunch     Breakfast Bread Recipes

Time 3h10m

Yield 16

Number Of Ingredients 14

½ cup hazelnuts
1 cup eggnog, plus
1 tablespoon eggnog
2 tablespoons white sugar
½ teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons butter, softened
1 egg
1 egg yolk
3 cups bread flour
1 ½ teaspoons instant yeast
2 tablespoons anise seed
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ cup confectioners' sugar
1 tablespoon eggnog

Steps:

  • Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • Spread hazelnuts evenly on a baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, transfer the nuts to a bowl, and let them cool.
  • Place the eggnog, sugar, salt, butter, egg, egg yolk, bread flour, yeast, anise seed, and cinnamon into the bread machine. Program the machine for a basic cycle with the crust as "medium." Press start. Do not use the delay timer.
  • Place the cooled toasted hazelnuts into the machine between Knead Cycle 1 and Knead Cycle 2. When the baking cycle ends, immediately remove the bread from the pan and allow it to cool on a rack.
  • Prepare the glaze by combining the confectioners' sugar and eggnog in a bowl; mix well. It should be a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the glaze on the cooled bread before slicing.

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality ingredients for the best flavor.
  • Make sure the eggs and butter are at room temperature before you start baking.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing can make the bread tough.
  • Bake the bread until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
  • Let the bread cool completely before slicing and serving.
  • For a richer flavor, use dark rum instead of light rum.
  • For a sweeter bread, add more sugar to the batter.
  • For a more eggnog-y flavor, add more eggnog to the batter.
  • Garnish the bread with whipped cream, nutmeg, or cinnamon before serving.
