Initially I was thinking of just making a pumpkin bread and somehow infusing it with bourbon, and having it accompany some eggnog ice cream. I had this idea that I should be able to pour some eggnog into an ice cream maker, and end up with eggnog ice cream. I didn&#8217;t get to test that theory, though, because our Kitchenaid ice cream maker wasn&#8217;t cold enough to actually freeze anything.<\/p>\n<p>I decided instead to incorporate egg nog in the pumpkin bread itself. I used a recipe from my old Joy of Cooking book and made a few minor adjustments:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Reduced the amount of ground cinnamon by 1\/4 teaspoon and added 1\/4 teaspoon of freshly grated nutmeg<\/li>\n<li>Used ground allspice instead of ground cloves<\/li>\n<li>Substituted 1\/3 cup of eggnog for the 1\/3 cup of water or milk called for in the recipe<\/li>\n<li>Reduced the sugar by 1\/3 cup<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The recipe was for a 9&#8243; x 5&#8243; loaf pan, but 10&#8243; x 5&#8243; was the closest I had. It worked fine, though the loaf ended up a little shorter than intended. I baked the bread for an hour, as called for in the recipe. It turned out a little dry, so in the future I would decrease the baking time a little.<\/p>\n<p>After the baked bread had cooled for a while, I poked a bunch of holes in the top with a bamboo skewer and poured an orange bourbon powdered sugar glaze over the top, making sure that plenty of it made it down all those perforations.<\/p>\n<h6>Orange Bourbon Glaze<\/h6>\n<ul>\n<li>1 1\/2 cups of powdered sugar<\/li>\n<li>4 ounces of bourbon (I used Bulleit)<\/li>\n<li>2 teaspoons of\u00a0 freshly squeezed orange juice<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>The end result was quite tasty, if a little on the sweet side. If I were to do it again, I&#8217;d reduce the amount of sugar in the pumpkin bread recipe a bit more, maybe reduce the amount of powdered sugar in the glaze a bit (or increase the bourbon), and let the glaze soak into the bread longer before serving.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My plan for this dish evolved a bit.
