Eggnog Mini Loaves

These yummy golden eggnog mini loaves are moist and bursting with delicious eggnog, rum extract and nutmeg flavors.

They are very easy and quick to put together and make for an excellent dessert bread during special occasions like Easter or Christmas. The tasty slices also go great with a cup of coffee or tea.

After baking your eggnog mini loaves, to make removal from the baking pans a breeze, line the mini loaf pans with parchment paper, draping the parchment a couple of inches over the sides to form a sling you can use to easily pop the loaves right out.
