Directions:
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×5 inch loaf pan.
- In a large bowl, mix the flour, sugars, baking powder, nutmeg, cinnamon, and salt.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggnog, oil, eggs, and vanilla extract.
- Gently combine the wet ingredients with the dry, stirring until just mixed. Fold in the pecans if desired.
