VINTAGE WOODEN BREAD BOX RECIPES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F. Grease and flour an 8-x4-inch loaf pan; tap out any excess flour. Set aside.
• Whisk together eggs, granulated sugar, melted butter, orange zest and juice, and 1/2 cup of the eggnog in a large bowl until well combined. Stir together flour, baking powder, and salt in a medium bowl. Add flour mixture to egg mixture; stir together until just combined. Fold in cranberries and walnuts. Spoon batter into prepared loaf pan, and spread evenly.
• Bake in preheated oven until a wooden pick inserted in center of loaf comes out clean, 50 to 55 minutes. Let loaf cool in pan 10 minutes. Gently turn out onto a wire rack; let cool completely, about 1 hour.
• Whisk together powdered sugar and 1 tablespoon of the eggnog until combined, adding up to remaining 1 tablespoon eggnog, 1 teaspoon at a time, until desired glaze consistency. Drizzle glaze over bread before serving.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425°F. Cook sausage in a large skillet over medium-high, stirring often with a wooden spoon to break into small pieces, until sausage is browned and thoroughly cooked, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove sausage to a plate lined with paper towels to drain.
• Roll or stretch pizza dough into a 13- x 9-inch rectangle on a large piece of parchment paper or work surface. (If dough is too elastic, allow to stand at room temperature 10 to 15 minutes.)
• Spoon cheese spread onto prepared dough rectangle, and spread in an even layer over top, leaving a 1/2-inch border around all edges. Top cheese spread layer with an even layer of crumbled sausage, shredded cheese, and parsley. Starting at 1 long side, fold dough over in half so long ends meet, pinching edges together to seal. Place filled dough roll on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet, seam side down. Brush with melted butter, and sprinkle with Italian seasoning.
• Bake in preheated oven until golden brown, about 30 minutes, covering with aluminum foil after 20 minutes to prevent excessive browning. Let stand on pan 10 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board, and cut bread using a bread knife.
