Eggnog-Poppy Seed Bread

So, I made this around Christmas time, and I'm just now getting around to posting it. I called the poppy seeds "sprinkles" because otherwise, as we all know, Joshie and Tiernan never would have tried it. Is that bad? Anyway, we all liked it....especially Joshie!

Eggnog-Poppy Seed Bread

2 1/2 C. all purpose flour
1 C. sugar
1/4 C. poppy seeds*
1 1/4 C. eggnog
1 Tbsp plus 1 tsp grated orange peel
3 Tbsp vegetable oil
3 1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 tsp ground nutmeg
1 egg

Heat oven to 350 degrees. Grease bottom only of on 9x5-inch loaf pan or two 8x4-inch loaf pans with shortening or cooking spray.
In large bowl, stir together all ingredients; beat 30 seconds with spoon. Pour into pans.
Bake 9-inch loaf 55 to 6 minutes, 8-inch loaves 55-60 minutes, or until toothpick inserted in center comes out clean. Cool 10 minutes; remove from pan to cooling rack. Cool completely, about 1 hour, before slicing. Wrap in plastic wrap and store i refrigerator up to 1 week.

*I used less than 1/4 C. of poppy seeds because that sounded like way too much.

  1. Actually I think that's quite clever to disguise the poppy seeds as sprinkles haha!
