Instructions:
Step 1
To start, preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C), then, grease the bottom of a 9×5-inch loaf pan.
Step 2
After that, in a large bowl, whisk the eggs, and add the sugar, melted butter, eggnog, rum flavor extract, and vanilla extract. Mix well.
Step 3
Then, in a separate bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and nutmeg. Then, gradually add the dry ingredients to the eggnog mixture, and blend.
Step 4
In this step, pour the batter into the greased loaf pan.
Step 5
Next, bake for 40 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Step 6
Finally, allow the bread to cool in the pan for about 10-15 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack to finish cooling, and once it’s completely cool.
