Poppy Seed Bread

Michelle Bueler
I like to double this recipe and cook them in small loaf pans. One recipe makes 2 large loaves or about 5 small loaves. The bread freezes well, if it lasts that long!

3 c. flour 1 ½ tsp salt
1 ½ tsp baking powder 2 ¼ c sugar
1 ½ c milk 1 ½ c oil
3 eggs 1 ½ Tbsp poppy seeds
1 ½ tsp. each of butter, vanilla and almond flavorings

Combine all ingredients. Beat 2 min. and pour into greased loaf pan. Bake at 350 for 1 hour (less time if using small loaf pans, about 35-40 min.). Glaze while very warm.
Glaze: ½ tsp. of all flavorings, ¼ c orange juice, ¾ c. sugar (Mix all together and heat over med-high heat until all dissolved, pour over loaves of bread, I like to leave the bread in the pans while cooling to soak up all the glaze).
