Ingredients

2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 large eggs
1 cup granulated white sugar
1 cup eggnog
1/2 cup salted butter melted
1 teaspoon vanilla
3 cups fresh cranberries; of thawed frozen cranberries

Vanilla Bean Eggnog Glaze

1 cup confectioners sugar
2 Tablespoons Eggnog
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste

Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of 4 mini loaf pans, or a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan. Line each pan with parchment paper after spraying with non-stick baking spray.
In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and set aside.
In a medium bowl, combine eggs, sugar, eggnog, and vanilla. Add melted butter. Slowly add melted butter and mix until combined. Add egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just moistened (batter maybe lumpy). Fold in cranberries.
Spoon batter into the prepared pan(s). Bake mini loaves on a baking sheet for 30-40 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into center of the loaves. Toothpick should come out clean. For the Large Loaf bake 45-55 minutes. Cool in the pan on wire rack for 10 minutes. DO NOT REMOVE parchment paper. Cool completely.
In a small bowl combine confectioners sugar, vanilla bean paste, and eggnog. Mix with wire whisk until smooth. Drizzle Vanilla Glaze over the top of each cooled loaf. Parchment paper will catch any overflow. Allow glaze to set up for 10-15 minutes before slicing.
