Eggnog Quick Bread Recipe

2 eggs

1 cup sugar

1 cup dairy eggnog -- (not canned)

1/2 cup butter or margarine -- melted

2 teaspoons rum extract

1 teaspoon vanilla

2 1/4 cups flour

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

1/4 teaspoon nutmeg

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom only of 9x5 inch loaf pan. Beat eggs in large bowl. Add sugar, eggnog, margarine, rum extract, and vanilla; blend well. Lightly spoon flour into measuring cup; level off. Add flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg; stirring just until dry ingredients are moistened. Pour into greased pan. Bake for 45 to 50 minutes. Cool in pan for 10 minutes then remove. Cool completely.

Note: Dairy eggnog freezes well so freeze some extra during the Christmas season and have a treat during the summer! You can freeze eggnog in 1 cup containers so that you can make this in July and think of Christmas. You can double this but not any larger. For a change, pick your favorite chocolate quick bread recipe and marble together.
