Holiday Oatmeal Eggnog Muffins Recipe

These simple Oatmeal Eggnog Muffins are sure to get you in a festive mood!

It’s that time of year again. You know, where I buy a carton of eggnog because I really think I love it. Then I have my first official glass of the season, feel immediately ill from how rich it is, and end up with an entire carton of eggnog in my fridge I don’t know what to do with.

I love the flavor of eggnog, and maybe a small sip should be my limit, but I’ll continue to buy eggnog year after year. I love having the leftovers to use in eggnog desserts and baked goods. This season, my leftover eggnog got the muffin treatment with these simple oatmeal eggnog muffins. Oh so good!…

Eggnog Custard Oatmeal Brûlée Recipe

Kristen — Fri, 04 Dec 2015 18:14:27 +0000

The holiday season comes with a lot of hustle and bustle. Slow down your mornings with a bowl of Eggnog Custard Oatmeal Brûlée and a brewed mug of Starbucks® Holiday Blend K-Cup® Packs.

The other day I had one of those mornings… you know, where everything seems to go wrong before the day has even really started? Yes, one of THOSE mornings. Leah pulled out a gallon of milk from the fridge and along with it came crashing down a huge glass jar of pickles. Glass shards, pickles and pickle juice went everywhere. Kelly forgot to have me sign a form for school she needed “right now” because her ride was waiting for her. Jacob was texting me asking me to bring his science book and homework up to school because he accidentally forgot it. And Ella… will Ella was just being a moody 8 year old. All this and I hadn’t even had my morning coffee yet!

I don’t love my morning coffee for the caffeine boost. I love it because my morning coffee means I had some morning me time with my favorite hot beverage. The time with my cup of coffee is never rushed…it’s my ritualistic, slowed down, plan, reflect, and dream time. When I don’t get that time in the morning and have a day like I did above, I immediately want a do-over!…

Eggnog Love {Recipe: Eggnog Cheesecake Bars}

I’m honored to be a part of the 2013 Kraft Tastemaker Community, where I am teaming up with Kraft Foods to bring you family friendly recipes using common ingredients found in your pantry!

Is it too soon in the holiday season to talk eggnog? Because I’m not trying to rush past Thanksgiving by any means, but eggnog season is just soooo short, and I kind of love it. I really want to stretch it out as long as possible.

Are you an eggnog fan? For me, I usually buy one carton of eggnog a year to drink and that tides me over, but oh how I love to bake and cook with eggnog. As soon as eggnog hits the store shelves, I’m buying it and adding it to pancakes, cookies, bread, coffee, etc. Eggnog adds such wonderful flavor to so many recipes!…

We Need to Talk About Eggnog

Kristen — Tue, 27 Nov 2012 23:32:22 +0000

Friends, we need to talk about eggnog. Specifically, where you are on the love / hate scale with it?

Eggnog is one of those things where each year around this time, I get incredibly tempted by the freshly stocked shelves of eggnog. Things go down exactly like this…

I purchase a 1/2 gallon of eggnog
As soon as I get it home, I have one small glass
As soon as I finish drinking that one glass, I remember I really don’t love eggnog
I spend the next week using my eggnog in recipes, because I do really like the flavor of eggnog, just not actual eggnog itself.

Morning Thanks {Recipe: Eggnog French Toast}

Kristen — Wed, 23 Nov 2011 18:10:51 +0000

In my fantasy world, mornings would be calm…a time for soft music and happy chatter. Ideally, I would get up before the kids, sit down to a nice cup of coffee, catch up on the days news (aka Twitter, Facebook, Instagram) and make a delicious breakfast for all to share….

Is Good? {Recipe: Eggnog Syrup for Pancakes or Waffles}

Kristen — Tue, 22 Nov 2011 05:42:02 +0000

I made something today that kind of blew my mind. In fact, after it was done cooking, I stuck a spoon into the pot, took a lick and “mmmmmmmmm’d” so loud my 2 year old came running into the kitchen saying, “Is good, mama? Is good?” I continued to spoon the golden goodness into my mouth, ignoring her pleading eyes and simply answering her inquiry by nodding my head and saying “mmmmmmmm”. This golden goodness that rendered me almost speechless is Eggnog flavored pancake or waffle syrup! Indulgent, right? Even though I’m not a huge eggnog fan, I do love eggnog flavor. I also really enjoy flavored pancakes, but often am disappointed when the flavor doesn’t come through loud and clear. My solution to my dilemma was to make a syrup so rich and tasty, you’d have no doubt what flavor it was. I will say… this isn’t your everyday, head off to school, healthy morning pancake syrup. This is your indulgent, let’s celebrate the holidays, special treat kind of breakfast. And speaking of celebration…is Tuesday a good enough reason to celebrate? I think so. Let’s breakout the Eggnog Pancake Syrup! Enjoy!

I played around with this recipe all morning trying to get exactly what I wanted when I remembered the very indulgent buttermilk syrup recipe from Chef Brad at Thermador. Reducing the quantity and substituting eggnog for the buttermilk created exactly what I was hoping for!

Are you looking for more holiday inspired breakfasts? I have just the recipes for you!

Just looking at Amy’s photos of her Pumpkin Pancakes has me drooling!
French Toast is always a good idea, but especially around the holidays.
