Eggnog Cranberry Bread

A lovely Christmasy recipe from My Biscuits are Burning

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

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. 
• Grease the bottom and 1/2 inch up the sides of 4 mini loaf pans (5.6x3x2) or a 9x5x3 inch loaf pan.
• In a large bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, salt and nutmeg. 
• Make a well in the center of the flour mixture and set aside.
• In a medium bowl, combine the eggs, sugar, eggnog, melted butter and vanilla. 
• Add egg mixture to the flour mixture and stir until just moistened (batter may be lumpy). 
• Fold in cranberries.
• Spoon batter into the prepared pan(s). 
• Bake mini loaves on a baking sheet for 30-40 minutes. 
• Check by inserting a toothpick into the center of the loaves--it should come out clean. 
• If using one large bread pan, bake for 45-55 minutes and check for done-ness. 
• Cool in the pan on a wire rack for 10 minutes. 
• Remove from pan and  cool completely on a rack.
