Banana Eggnog Bread
This time of year, one of my favorite snacks is warm banana bread with a glass of nog. I decided to combine the two, and was so happy with the resulting eggnog bread. —Kristin Stone, Litte Elm, Texas

I was looking for a recipe that used eggnog since I really only like one glass of it. This used other ingredients that I had on hand. I cut way back on the sugar to less than a cup, I figured between the ripe bananas and eggnog, it would be sweet enough. They came out really good, they were moist and flavorful.
Love it! Made it twice. The only problem I had was with bake time. It browned too much to get center baked. I might try baking at 325 or put into small pans. A keeper.
I was looking for recipes to use up left over eggnog. This was perfect. Great, moist banana bread, with an egg nog flavor.
I forgot to sprinkle nutmeg on top before baking - so I made a simple icing/glaze of eggnog and powdered sugar for the loaf, and while it was still wet I sprinkled freshly ground nutmeg on top. So glad I did it that way. Next time, I plan to 'spike' my eggnog a wee bit before adding it to the loaf and the glaze. I will certainly be making this again!
This bread is so easy to whip up, and is moist and delicious! I used the full 1/2 tsp of nutmeg in the batter, then sprinkled additional on top. I doubled the recipe and it came out beautifully. Great way to use up eggnog -will definitely make again!
What a wonderful bread! It is so fluffy and creamy in texture. The eggnog adds the perfect hint of spices and the nutmeg on top was the perfect extra addition.
This bread was real good. I loved the way it looked when it came out of the oven and the egg not flavor is not too overbearing. I will make this again.
A nice twist to banana bread. Wasn't my favorite but it was fun to try.
Made this for Christmas day and it was tasty. The middle was a bit underbaked, but the edges were brown, so I'm not sure I would have baked it for longer than 50 minutes anyway.
Made this Sunday. Followed exactly. Way too sweet. I would cut down on the sugar. My family loves it. Going to make more while the eggnog is available and freeze them to enjoy later in the year.
