I have to admit, as yummy as this sounds I haven't made it...I don't do soy and have never seen a rice based egg nog, and am, frankly too lazy to make my own. However since I've adapted a good number of regular recipes to make them gluten free, here is what I'd do:
Eggnog Quick Bread
1 - 9x5 inch loaf. try making in a couple smaller pans first, or even a 9" or 8" square cake pan instead of a loaf pan. Some GF quick breads are notorious for either not wanting to rise in a large loaf pan or sinking in the middle when they cool.
INGREDIENTS: 1/2 cup egg beater or 4 egg whites, beaten (equivalent of 2 eggs) 1 cup Silk Nog (soy eggnog) 2 teaspoons rum flavored extract 1 cup white sugar 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/2 cup applesauce This is going to sound strange, I know, but I'd replace some of the applesauce with oil, using 1/4 cup oil, and 1/4 cup applesauce. You need some oil/fat to bind to the alternative flours. Applesauce just won't cut it and the loaf will get very soggy at the bottom. 2 1/4 cups all-purpose flour Use a good commercial GF blend (nothing with any bean flour in it please) or your own blend, and start with LESS, say 1 3/4 cup at first...add a T. or 2 as you are mixing until the loaf gets the consistency you want. All alternative flours respond to liquid a little differently so a lot will depend on the blend you use. I've learned that the GF dough/batter needs to be a little stiffer than that when you use wheat flour. Add 2 t. Xanthan gum 2 teaspoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg You may have to adjust your baking times so watch the the loaf carefully while it's baking.
