Apricot & Macadamia Eggnog Bread
- 4-3/4 cups all-purpose flour
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 2 large eggs
- 2-1/2 cups eggnog
- 1/2 cup canola oil
- 1 tablespoon grated orange zest
- 1/4 cup orange juice
- 3/4 cup chopped dried apricots
- 3/4 cup chopped macadamia nuts
- 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
- 1 to 2 tablespoons eggnog
- Preheat oven to 350u0b0. In a large bowl, whisk the first six ingredients. In another bowl, whisk eggs, 2-1/2 cups eggnog, oil, orange zest and orange juice until blended. Add to flour mixture; stir just until moistened. Fold in apricots and macadamia nuts.
- Transfer to two greased 9-x5-in. loaf pans. Bake 50-60 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool in pans 10 minutes before removing to wire racks to cool completely.
- For glaze, in a small bowl, mix confectioners' sugar and enough eggnog to reach drizzling consistency. Spoon over loaves.
- Securely wrap cooled loaves in plastic wrap and foil, then freeze. To use, thaw at room temperature.
