AMARETTO BREAD
I know its richness makes it a naughty pleasure, but I adore commercial eggnog with
its flavors of nutmeg and spirit extracts. Oh, the consistency!—creamy and smooth.
Here is a bread in which eggnog contributes the essence of the holiday season to every
bite. Since different brands of eggnog have different viscosities, be prepared to add an-
other tablespoon or so here if yours is especially thick. This loaf is wonderful for toast
and great for bread pudding. You can also glaze it with an Amaretto Icing.
