Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Prepare two 8”x4” loaf pans or one 9”x5” loaf pan by spraying with cooking spray and sprinkling inside with flour.
- In a large bowl, beat eggs and butter. Beat in the sugar, extracts and eggnog.
- Combine 2-1/2 cups flour, baking powder, salt and pumpkin pie spice; gradually add to egg mixture. Add the fruit and stir into batter. Fold in walnuts.
- Pour into the prepared loaf pan(s). Bake at 350° for 60-65 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean.
- While the bread bakes, prepare the glaze by mixing together the eggnog and almond extract with a fork in a small bowl. Add powdered sugar until desired consistency is reached.
- Cool for 10 minutes before removing from pans to wire racks to cool completely. Drizzle with eggnog glaze if using.
