Almond Poppy Seed Bread

PRINT RECIPE

(this isn't the best picture...again...but just trust me...YUMMY!)

3 c. all-purpose flour

2 1/2 c. sugar

1 1/2 tsp. baking powder

1 1/2 tsp. salt

1 1/8 c. canola oil

3 eggs

1 1/2 c. milk

2 tsp. poppy seeds

1 1/2 tsp. vanilla

1 1/2 tsp. butter flavoring

1 1/2 tsp. almond flavoring

GLAZE

3/4 c. white granulated sugar

1/4 c. orange juice

1/2 tsp. vanilla

1/2 tsp. butter flavoring

1/2 tsp. almond flavoring

Preheat oven to 350. In a medium bowl, sift together flour, salt, and baking powder. In a large mixing bowl, combine eggs, oil, sugar, and flavorings and beat for 2 minutes. Alternate adding in flour mixture and milk and then mix until just combined. Add poppyseeds and mix until just combined. Pour into prepared pans (5 mini pans or 2 regular loaf pans) and bake (35-40 minutes for mini pans, 1 hour for large pans; keep an eye on them). When done, place on a cooling rack for 10 minutes and then remove from pans and allow to cool completely on a cooling rack. While cooling, prepare glaze by combining all glaze ingredients. Drizzle over loaves and allow to harden. I didn't put on the glaze when I made them, but can't wait to try this recipe again with the glaze!
