Method
 

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and flour a 9x5 inch loaf pan.
  2. In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt.
  3. In a large bowl, cream together softened butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Use an electric mixer or mix by hand.
  4. Beat in eggs one at a time, then stir in vanilla extract.
  5. Gradually add dry ingredients to wet ingredients, mixing on low speed until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently stir in eggnog until batter is smooth.
  7. Pour batter into prepared loaf pan and bake for 50-60 minutes, or until a wooden skewer inserted into the center comes out clean.
  8. Let cool in pan for 10 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely. Make glaze by whisking powdered sugar and eggnog. Drizzle over cooled bread.

Notes

For a richer flavor, use homemade eggnog. You can also add nuts, dried cranberries, or chocolate chips to the batter.
