It Isn’t A Christmas Party without Egg Nog Banana Bread!

A quick and easy holiday bread that you can serve your family and friends or even Santa 🙂

Check out what my pals over at Peanut Butter And Peppers had to say about this yummy recipe:

I have to admit even though I don’t like eggnog, I really enjoyed the bread.  I had to sample it for texture and taste and I was pleasantly surprised how good it is.  So good that I ate a quarter of a loaf.  I was pretty proud and pretty stoked to come up with this recipe.  I also think the bread turned out so pretty and best of all my Husband loved it!  I couldn’t be happier!  This would be a wonderful bread to serve at Christmas time!   I can see it on a table at brunch or giving it away as a hostess gift.

I can see it sitting on a brunch table, too!
