1/2
teaspoon ground nutmeg

1
teaspoon vanilla
1/2

1/2
cup coarsely chopped candied red cherries
Preparation:
1.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease three 5-1/2X3-inch mini-loaf pans.
2.
Combine flour, sugar, baking powder and nutmeg in large bowl. Combine eggnog, melted butter, eggs and vanilla in medium bowl; stir until well blended. Add eggnog mixture to flour mixture. Mix just until all ingredients are moistened. Stir in pecans and cherries. Spoon into prepared pans.

Note
A loaf of homemade bread makes a great gift–especially when it's given in a new loaf pan! Just add a wooden spoon and the recipe; then wrap it all up in a festive towel and tie it with ribbon.
