Ingredients:

  • for the bread
  • 1/2 cup hazelnuts
  • 1 cup eggnog , plus
  • 1 tbsp eggnog
  • 2 tbsp white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 egg
  • 3 cups bread flour
  • 1 1/2 tsp instant yeast
  • 2 tbsp anise seed
  • for the glaze
  • 1/2 cup confectioners' sugar
  • 1 tbsp eggnog

Directions:

  1. Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  2. Spread hazelnuts evenly on a baking sheet. Bake until lightly toasted, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven, transfer the nuts to a bowl, and let them cool.
  3. Place the eggnog, sugar, salt, butter, egg, egg yolk, bread flour, yeast, anise seed, and cinnamon into the bread machine. Program the machine for a basic cycle with the crust as medium. Press start. Do not use the delay timer.
  4. Place the cooled toasted hazelnuts into the machine between Knead Cycle 1 and Knead Cycle 2. When the baking cycle ends, immediately remove the bread from the pan and allow it to cool on a rack.
  5. Prepare the glaze by combining the confectioners' sugar and eggnog in a bowl; mix well. It should be a drizzling consistency. Drizzle the glaze on the cooled bread before slicing.
