Eggnog-Poppy Seed Bread

Directions

Preheat oven to 350℉ (180℃); grease the bottom only of one 9 x 5 x 3-inch loaf pan or two 8½ x 8½ x 8½-inch loaf pans.

In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients; beat for 30 seconds.

Pour into the prepared pan. Bake the 9-inch loaf for 55 to 65 minutes, the 8-inch loaf for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean; cool slightly.

Loosen the sides of the loaf from the pan; remove from the pan.

Cool completely on a wire rack before slicing.

Wrap and refrigerate for up to 1 week.

Makes 1 loaf, or 2 smaller loaves.
