Two Peas & Their Pod's recipe features a sweet eggnong glaze, while blogger Krysten at Lil' Luna adds a decadent twist by mixing white chocolate pudding mix into her dough. If you prefer a heartier taste, try covering your bread in a rum glaze like Erin from Well Plated. You could also try bourbon or brandy if that's more your speed.
Do you or a family member have a gluten allergy? No worries! You can still enjoy the delicious spicy sweetness of eggnog bread by following this gluten-free eggnog bread recipe from The Roasted Root. Instead of flour, almond meal is used to make the dough, and the finishing creamy glaze is made of coconut milk, a splash of brandy and sweetened with maple syrup.

All of these recipes call for store-bought eggnog, but if your local supermarket is sold out, don't worry. Making your own eggnog is a lot easier than you'd think! Simply Salted has a fantastic, easy eggnog recipe that will guide you through the steps of making your own rendition of this traditional Christmas drink with whole milk, cream, egg whites and dark rum.
If you find regular eggnog too heavy for your taste, try this light eggnog recipe by A Sweet Pea Chef. With a base of almond milk and honey, this eggnog recipe is more like a fancy Christmas latte!
