Notes

Use full-fat eggnog for the best texture and flavor.Add chopped nuts or dried cranberries for extra texture and flavor.The bread tastes even better the next day as the flavors develop.Wrap and freeze for up to 2 months for long-term storage.Make into muffins by baking in muffin tins for 18–22 minutes.
