Ingredients
2 cups all-purpose flour
½ cup granulated sugar
½ cup brown sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
½ teaspoon salt
1 cup eggnog
½ cup vegetable oil
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
½ cup chopped pecans (optional)
Instructions
Preheat Oven:
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Mix Dry Ingredients:
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, granulated sugar, brown sugar, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
Mix Wet Ingredients:
In a separate bowl, whisk together eggnog, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract until smooth.
Combine Mixtures:
Gently fold the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients until just combined. Do not overmix. Fold in pecans if using.
Bake:
Pour batter into the prepared pan. Smooth the top and bake for 50–60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Cool:
Let the bread cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before slicing.
Notes
Use Quality Eggnog: A thick, creamy eggnog will enhance flavor and moisture.
Optional Add-Ins: Swap pecans for walnuts, or omit entirely.
Spice It Up: Add a pinch of allspice or cloves for a deeper spice profile.
Make It Gluten-Free: Use a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend in place of all-purpose flour.
Storage: Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days or refrigerate for up to a week.
