Updated March 26, 2019 I don’t like to listen to Christmas music or put the Christmas decorations up until after Thanksgiving. Now that Thanksgiving is over we can officially start celebrating Christmas. Bring on the Bing Crosby, Christmas lights, and candy canes. I spotted eggnog in the store the other day and bought a quart to help put us in the festive mood. I personally don’t like to drink eggnog, but I thought it would be fun to bake with it. To kick off the holiday season, I made Mini Eggnog Doughnut Muffins.
I’ve made doughnut muffins and baked donut holes a few times and they are always a hit. I figured eggnog doughnut muffins would be perfect for the holiday season. I added eggnog, cinnamon, and nutmeg to the muffin batter. When the doughnut muffins were finished baking, I dunked them into an eggnog glaze. The eggnog flavor isn’t overpowering, but you can definitely taste it. These eggnog muffins are perfect with a glass of milk, tea, or coffee. And if you really like eggnog, wash them down with a big swig of the creamy holiday drink.
I think these Mini Eggnog Doughnut Muffins would be perfect for a Christmas morning breakfast or brunch. They are easy to make and easy to eat. Be careful, the mini muffins are easy to pop into your mouth. I lost count after eating two:) Go buy some eggnog while it is in season and get baking! The holidays are here!
