Eggnog is a festive tipple that is good to sip, but you can also use it in recipes. Take the following eggnog bread, for example. It will be perfectly served on Christmas morning for breakfast, right before you start ripping open all those presents. It also makes a tasty snack at any time of the day.

Eggnog is one of the most evident flavors in the cake, and it also has cinnamon and nutmeg. A splash of rum extract is also good in there.

The eggnog not only adds flavor to the cake but it also helps keep it beautifully moist. It keeps for a few days and can even be frozen if you want to make extra. Raisins and pecans add festive flavor to the loaf, along with applesauce, eggnog, sugar, and more.
